Ubisoft's Watch Dogs franchise, known for its hacker-themed third-person shooters, is venturing into the mobile gaming world! However, this isn't a traditional mobile port. Instead, Watch Dogs: Truth, an interactive audio adventure, has launched on Audible.
Players shape the narrative by making choices that guide Dedsec's actions. This choose-your-own-adventure style, a format dating back to the 1930s, places players in near-future London where Dedsec confronts a new threat, aided by the AI Bagley.
The Watch Dogs franchise's late arrival on mobile, considering its age (roughly equivalent to Clash of Clans), is noteworthy. While this audio adventure format might seem unconventional, it offers a fresh take on the series. The relatively low-key marketing surrounding Watch Dogs: Truth is also intriguing. Ultimately, the success of this experiment will depend on player reception. We'll be watching closely to see how this unique approach performs.
