Watch Dogs Releasing Between April-June 2014 Confirms Ubisoft

Ubisoft has just confirmed in their earning release that Watch Dogs will launch sometime in between April-June 2014.

Mr-Dude3721d ago

Jeez... Still no concrete release date Ubisoft!
They are lucky a lot of people are hyped for this game

Palitera3721d ago (Edited 3721d ago )

I read this announcement as a good thing. These three months might very well be used to polish the game and release it in a better state.

superbhoy3721d ago

its been a long wait though...I mean for something that was supposed to be available for ps4/x1 at launch?

Palitera3721d ago (Edited 3721d ago )

I agree. At least now we know when it is coming.

In this release window we will also have inFamous, so two top tier open world games for PS4 (one next-gen, one cross-gen), finally!

Spenok3721d ago

I never get upset about delays. As it only means the game will be better when it finally does launch. Sure, I would have preferred to play it back in november. But this extra 3/4 of a year only made it that much better!

This game should hopefully be fantastic. I know I am buying it day one for sure.

psman0123721d ago

I know I'll probably get a lot of disagrees for this, but this game has had so many delays and controversies that I'm not even too excited for it anymore.

Lboogieskells3721d ago

Sorry to say I lost hype for this game. Their Marketing team has a hell of a job getting gamers like myself back on board.

quaneylfc3721d ago (Edited 3721d ago )

So from Q1 to Q2, is that another delay then?

(not a delay, more of an underestimation of launch)

but spring is spring so i don't know.

Wii u later date just cancel it Ull sell less than 1% of the copies on it.

ABizzel13721d ago

The sad part is that your comment is almost true. Wii U version of Assassin's Creed made up less than 2% of the total sales.

Eonjay3721d ago (Edited 3721d ago )

That window is 90 days wide. Um lets go with May 18th.

My guess is just a valid as Ubisoft's phantom dates.

Edit: I meant may 18th

rdgneoz33721d ago

"That window is 90 days wide. Um lets go with March 18th."

When did March fall between April and June?

ramiuk13721d ago

hope so my birthday is on 20th,guaranteed extra present

Salooh3721d ago (Edited 3721d ago )

Great news :) . These 2 days are awesome. Worms announced for the new consoles / Watch dog release date / The last of us dlc release / Dying light announcement is coming(most likely a release date and a demo).

Meltic3721d ago

Watch Dogs Deserves A Remake, More Than Ever

With the world of information and technology, privacy and security growing every day, Watch Dogs deserves another chance in the spotlight, now more than ever.

RaidenBlack996d ago

The only Ubi title that deserves a faithful remake right now is Splinter Cell 1.
All 2014+ Ubi titles are just underwhelming. Especially ones from 2016+ are just cancer.

LucasRuinedChildhood996d ago (Edited 996d ago )

Seriously, are we so far removed from Ubisoft actually making good games that people now praise Watch_Dogs in retrospect?

"Watch_Dogs has remained one of my favourite games of the last ten years." Jesus Christ.

HankHill996d ago

I remember being so disappointed in Watch Dogs when I played it at release. It was alright, but I think I fell for the hype and I needed a game to play on my new PS4.

obidanshinobi996d ago

This is what happens when mediocrity gets praised as good.
Standards are slipping across the whole entertainment industry.
What was once considering rubbish is now considered as OK, what once was OK is now being praised as good etc etc.

LamerTamer996d ago

Everyone has their own likes. I liked it a lot myself. I played through it twice and liked the car chases and the open world with fairly decent environments and missions. It suffered from the whole downgrade thing where they showed graphics that weren't actually there. No game will appeal to everyone but it was still ambitious for it's time.

gantarat996d ago

assassin's creed 1 should get a remake.

ExBee996d ago

For certain! AC1 was brilliant at the time but with new graphics and gameplay it would be amazing! Do you prefer old combat or new though?

RaidenBlack996d ago

I'd say a reimagining of AC1.
I direct AC1 remake would be a bad idea. It'll need better story pacing and significant better world building.

BlaqMagiq1996d ago

Old. Let it play like how it did with AC2-Syndicate style gameplay but refine the setting and story.

Profchaos996d ago

It would need a lot changed for it to be enjoyable again as even back in 2007 on launch we were all complaining about it's repetitive gameplay go here perform one of three side quests repeat then assassination now do it over and over until a big battle with a unforgiving checkpoint system.

BlaqMagiq1996d ago

Absolutely. It needs it. The only AC I truly didn't enjoy.

chicken_in_the_corn996d ago

I'd prefer it didn't. Ubisoft would make it so bloated, it wouldn't be anywhere near the original

smolinsk996d ago (Edited 996d ago )

Absolutely, this watch dogs legion was terrible boring.

Profchaos996d ago (Edited 996d ago )

As a fan of the franchise legion was garbage and I regretted my purchase for the first time in the franchise the entire thing felt like an experiment in NPC behaviour and released without the writers input on what makes a good story.

I don't think I'm alone in that feeling though as wrench and Aiden are brought back and the campaign was rewritten to fit them.

I am tempted to buy the season pass to play it again with Aiden but fool me twice shame on me I'm waiting for a deep sale

camel_toad996d ago

Agreed. Despite the annoying hipness of the characters in part 2 I thought it was a really fun game. I was extremely disappointed and surprised at how many steps back they took with Legion. You'd think it was made by an entirely different team. Or was it?

It was just so devoid of fun.

LamerTamer996d ago

Honestly one of my biggest annoyances with Legion is that they took out the camera views for the driving. I mean the behind the car view that they stuck us with is near unplayable. I always used a first person driving view. After two releases why did they take OUT features? I don't get it.

TheSinsibleOne996d ago

The fist watchdog game was the best by far
After that they weren't weird and annoying with that hipster stuff. Aiden was a badass.

LamerTamer996d ago

I thought so at first too. I got used to it and it ended up being good after some play time. I just had to give it a chance.

TheEnigma313996d ago

Remake the PoP series from xbox/ps2/gc era

RaidenBlack996d ago

They are remaking Sands of Time.

TheEnigma313996d ago

That's good news. Hopefully it's done right.

Inside the Driver game that died so that Watch Dogs could live

From VG247: "When cars slide, they leave tyre marks. In a game like Driver, they’re an aesthetic touch, part of the inherent cool of a handbrake turn. But those dark shadows in the road also tell a story. From tyre marks, you can determine the speed of a vehicle, when it started to skid, and its ultimate direction of travel – long after the car itself has vanished into the distance."

vallencer1061d ago

Different spellings in different parts of the world friend. Tyre is a correct way to spell it.

Pridefall1061d ago

Dunno why you got downvpted when tyre is correct in Australia.

mikefizzled11060d ago

The mystery that is En Fore Gee

neutralgamer19921061d ago

Give us driver San Francisco remastered

IGiveHugs2NakedWomen1061d ago

Why did they stop making some of the best games ever? Driver was one of them.

Gameseeker_Frampt1060d ago

Assassins Creed 2 showed Ubisoft how to make money and Far Cry 2 showed them that gamers don't like complex ideas. Now Ubisoft just turns out games that are just variations of the same thing.

WeAreLegion1061d ago

Best driving mechanics ever made. Nothing has come close.

Gardenia1061d ago

A story driven game with pure driving gameplay. I'd love to see a new Driver game or a remake of the first one.

ApocalypseShadow1061d ago

Yes. This one. A definite remake of the first without adding any ridiculous fluff. The first game had great physics and sound for its time. The start of the car in the beginning cinema I watched constantly. My father and uncles were big muscle and classic car freaks. Only thing crazy about the game was the relentless cops in the last level. Insane the way those police cars were and launched at you.

Bleemcast made it look better just like PC emulators. But would definitely take a remake.
