Watch Dogs: Truth lets you play the Ubisoft series on mobile (sort of)

Ubisoft's Watch Dogs franchise, known for its hacker-centric third-person shooters, is venturing into the mobile gaming world! However, this isn't a traditional mobile game port. Instead, Watch Dogs: Truth, an interactive audio adventure, has launched on Audible.

Players shape the narrative by making choices that guide Dedsec's actions. This choose-your-own-adventure style, a format dating back to the 1930s, places players in near-future London where Dedsec confronts a new threat, aided by the AI Bagley.

Interestingly, the Watch Dogs franchise's mobile debut arrives surprisingly late, roughly coinciding in age with Clash of Clans. While the audio adventure format might seem unconventional for a major franchise like Watch Dogs, the concept holds potential. The relatively low-key marketing surrounding Watch Dogs: Truth is noteworthy, leaving the success of this unique approach to be seen. The gaming community will undoubtedly be observing its reception closely.
