Gamestop has today inadvertently leaked new details about Ubisoft’s upcoming Watch Dog’s first DLC, that will bring with it a new playable character as part of the PlayStation 4 Season Pass.
The Watch Dog DLC details were leaked on a product page that was accidentally published on the official GameStop website and was spotted by the All Games Beta website.
The early published Watch Dogs DLC page that has now been removed by Gamestop but explained:
“Stay connected to the world of Watch Dogs with the Watch Dogs Season Pass. Get access to a unique Single Player Campaign featuring a new playable character plus more missions, weapons, and exclusive content for $19.99,” reads the game’s product details from the removed webpage. “That’s an over 30 percent savings versus buying each piece separately.”
Details of the New Playable Character
The new playable character in the Watch Dogs DLC has generated significant excitement among fans. While the identity of this character has not been officially confirmed, rumors suggest that it could be a character with a unique skill set that complements the main protagonist, Aiden Pearce. This addition is expected to bring a fresh perspective to the game, offering players new ways to interact with the game’s open-world environment. The new missions and weapons included in the DLC are anticipated to enhance the gameplay experience, providing more depth and variety.
Launch Date and Platform Availability
Apparently, the new Watch Dogs DLC will be officially launching on May 27th with preorders available for $19.99. The Watch Dogs game is set to be launched on May 27th for the following platforms: PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and PC. With a Wii U version also set to be released at a later date which has yet to be announced. This staggered release schedule has been a point of discussion among the gaming community, with many speculating on the reasons behind the delayed Wii U version. Some believe it could be due to optimization challenges, while others think it might be a strategic move to boost sales on other platforms first.
The inclusion of a Season Pass for Watch Dogs is a strategic move by Ubisoft to keep players engaged long after the initial release. Season Passes have become a popular way for game developers to offer additional content and keep the player base active. By offering a discount for purchasing the Season Pass, Ubisoft is encouraging players to invest in the game’s future content, ensuring a steady stream of revenue and continued interest in the game.
The Watch Dogs franchise has been highly anticipated since its initial announcement, and the addition of new content through the Season Pass is likely to keep the momentum going. The game’s unique blend of hacking, stealth, and action has set it apart from other open-world games, and the new DLC promises to build on this foundation with even more engaging content.
