Rumours: Watch Dogs series is "dead and buried"

Many people perceived Watch Dogs: Legion in 2020 was perceived by many as the end of Ubisoft's open-world series, as its "play as any NPC" concept did not resonate as expected. Now, four years later, talks about the future of the franchise are getting louder.

Here's What We Know

According to Ubisoft content creator j0nathan, the Watch Dogs franchise is now "dead and buried". Allegedly after the commercial disappointment of Watch Dogs: Legion, Ubisoft has abandoned several planned projects, including a unique battle royale title.

While this suggests a gloomy outlook for the future of the franchise, it remains uncertain whether Ubisoft will completely abandon Watch Dogs. It seems that the series has become less of a priority for the company.

Interestingly, despite the absence of a new game on the horizon, a Watch Dogs film adaptation is in development as part of New Regency, offering fans something to look forward to.
