    While its dystopian, futuristic London may smell of Grand Theft Auto open worlds, Watch Dogs Legion's approach to recruiting any NPC differentiates the formula in a unique way, creating a fascinating blend of freedom, action, stealth, and roguelikes.

    Watch Dogs: Legion is a far more palatable experience on PS5 thanks to its vastly-improved load times and splendid visual upgrades. The only real technical gripes are that there’s little in the way of DualSense implementation, and the framerate, while steady, hasn’t been upped. Its base problems of open-world fatigue and messy storytelling are still problems that can’t be so easily fixed and still remain a significant barrier to enjoyment. It’ll give you a dazzling trip to London, but you wouldn’t want to stay there.

    What you end up with is an experience that shows a ton of promise, but ends up being entirely average. It’s hard to call Watch Dogs Legion a bad game outright. It’s a serviceable, if traditional, open-world game with a boring story and novelty mechanics that play out better on paper than in execution. The PS5 version makes expected improvements to visuals and load times, but isn’t a standout example of a “next-gen” title.

    Watch Dogs Legion might look and run better than ever on PS5, but that means little when the game itself struggles to break the boundaries of mediocrity. This next-gen version remains unchanged from its PS4 counterpart as far as gameplay goes, so the boosted performance does little to hide the title's underlying issues. No matter how well it runs, Watch Dogs Legion needs to sort out how it plays.

Приятно зачищать локации и выполнять задания, после нескольких часов игровой движок ощущается по новому, играется на одном дыхании. Классическая Музыка по радио, интересное решение, порой даже комично получается под неё вытворять какую нибудь дичь. В игре есть небольшие баги, но на фоне киберпанка 2077 эта игра просто шедевр с точки зрения визуала и геймплея. Правда персонаж очень странно падает и получает урон от падения, допилить бы эту анимацию и была бы пушка бомба.… Expand

    I have fully completed the first Watch Dogs and I have greatly enjoyed it, didn't play the second one and now I have bought Watch Dogs: LegionI have fully completed the first Watch Dogs and I have greatly enjoyed it, didn't play the second one and now I have bought Watch Dogs: Legion and to be honest I am disappointed. It feels like a reproduction of the first game, only with quite better graphics and a few gimmics.

    The gameplay feels repetitiveand I quickly got sick of playing this game and I probably won't finish it.
    There is nothing more to the gameplay than to sneak, kill - repeat 1000x times or just go all out.
    The story is not interesting. Basically this game could be just a sneaky kill simulator for 20$ in the store.

    The idea of controlling many characters and not sticking to one or a few main characters that are with throughout the whole game is a mood killer. I did not feel attached to any character - I didn't care about any of them, and that translates into me not caring about the game itself.

    Support for haptic feedback while shooting is a plus, and recreating London ingame is cool too. But I think the developers mainly focused on just making a game that says "wow look we have made London and you can make a cool army of hackers". In reality this is really boring    … Expand
