Ubisoft's Watch Dogs franchise, known for its hacker-themed third-person shooters, is expanding into the mobile gaming sphere! However, this isn't a traditional mobile port. Instead, Watch Dogs: Truth, an interactive audio adventure, has launched on Audible.
Players will experience the narrative through choices that shape Dedsec's next move against a new threat in a near-future London setting. Guided by the AI, Bagley, players will make crucial decisions after each episode, much like a classic choose-your-own-adventure book.
This unique approach marks a surprising entry for the Watch Dogs franchise into the mobile market, especially considering its age. While the concept of audio adventures might seem unconventional, the potential for a major franchise like Watch Dogs to explore this format is intriguing.
The relatively low-key marketing for Watch Dogs: Truth highlights the franchise's somewhat inconsistent approach. Nevertheless, the reception of this audio adventure will be closely monitored to gauge its success and potential influence on future mobile endeavors.
