Watch Dogs Legion Gets First Ever In-Game Interview With BBC News

That's cool... I guess.

Watch Dogs Legion was revealed at last year’s E3 after much speculation. The game promised a lot of possibilities with a system that, on paper, allows you to become basically any NPC (whether that is a check that can be cashed is anyone’s guess for now). Legion was originally slated for March but was one of the several games that was hit by major delay from Ubisoft after the apparently huge failure of Ghost Recon: Breakpoint that shook the company to its core. We don’t know when the game is coming out, but over the weekend, we got a truly bizarre piece of media from it with a world’s first.

Via BBC News, it seems we got the “world’s first” in-game interview about the game. Journalist Marc Cieslak was digitally scanned into the game’s engine and conducted an interview with an also digital Clint Hocking, the game’s creative director. Nothing new was really stated, and the brief interview focused on the near future Britain setting and how this interview was done on a technical level. It’s neat… I guess?

Watch Dogs Legions will release for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, and Stadia at some point in the fiscal year 2020-2021, and it’s been mentioned that the delay would help the game take advantage of next generation consoles as well, though it has not yet been officially announced for either upcoming system.
