All the Watch Dog screens you could possibly want (because why not)

Check out our full written Watch Dogs review.

Last week we held a giveaway for the game Infamous: Second Son, and the only thing people had to do in order to enter was to tell us what games they are most looking forward to. One of the clear favorites and most anticipated titles cited was Ubisoft’s Watch Dogs. In celebration of that, and simply because Watch Dogs is awesome, we have a collection of screenshots to show off in anticipation of the game’s May 27 release. You’ll also find a recent trailer below, introducing you to the digital world of Chicago.

The game will be available for PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One on May 27, with a Wii U version coming at an unannounced point in the future.

Here’s how to get Watch Dogs 2 on PC for free with Uplay
watch dogs 2 free uplay hackerspace

To help build hype for its recent Ubisoft Forward event, Ubisoft allowed viewers to claim Watch Dogs 2 for free. The catch? You had to log in to Uplay during the live broadcast. Unfortunately, the service was plagued with issues during that time, likely caused by an overload of users trying to access it. Ubisoft Forward passed with few users having redeemed the game.

Not wishing to add more bad press to the company's recent collection of terrible news, Ubisoft quickly announced it would allow Watch Dogs 2 to be redeemable by anyone that logged into Uplay after the event. To claim the game, you simply need to head to Ubisoft's portal and log into your Uplay, or create one if you're new to the service. And that's it! The game should appear in your Uplay games library. The operative word being should, as after claiming the game for ourselves, it is still yet to appear in our list of games 10 minutes later. However, when we reload the portal link, it simply states that we've already claimed our copy, so hopefully soon my Uplay account will update. We will make sure to update this article the moment that change happens.
