N.B: All of the seamless multiplayer modes for Watch Dogs 2 , where players dynamically appear in your game, are offline at present due to major performance issues. Ubisoft is actively working to fix the problems, but we currently don't have a date for these fixes.

By expanding on a lot of what the first game and its expansion got right and mixing action, stealth, and puzzle gameplay with handy remote-control drones, Watch Dogs 2 impresses with open mission designs with multiple ways to reach your objective and some great toys to find them with.

A good game, not a fantastic game (for the reasons outlined) by any stretch. It is fun, with lots to see and do and in an open world action-adventure its easy to get bored.

We've already looked at Watch Dogs 2's [ official site ] multiplayer , which is seamlessly stitched onto the game's open world singleplayer shenanigans, and I've written about my first few hours with the game .

It took Tim quite a few hours before he realised that he was meant to be hacking things instead of actually watching dogs in Watch Dogs 2. Watch Dogs was depressing. I'm not talking about the stinging disappointment of the actual game after that astonishing reveal (as depressing as that was); I mean...
