Watch Dogs 2 multiplayer features revealed

Ubisoft has unveiled the new multiplayer options in the upcoming open world game Watch Dogs 2.

A new approach to online play in WD2, the Bounty Hunter mode is tied to the police heat system and playable by two to four players. When a player creates too much chaos in the single player open world and is pursued by the police, the conflict may trigger a Bounty Hunter PVP event pitting the target against up to three rival hunter players who seamlessly join the pursuit and try to neutralize the target. Additionally, players can manually trigger a bounty on themselves using the Contacts app on Marcus’ in-game phone.

Another online mode is Hacking Invasion, returning from the first game, the objective of this PVP mode is to download data from a target player while remaining undetected. Finally, Online Co-op allows two players to team up and lets them explore the San Francisco Bay Area or participate in cooperative missions. Also in co-op, players can also participate in Hacking Invasion and Bounty Hunter activities.

Watch Dogs 2 will release on November 15, 2016 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. All PlayStation 4 players will be granted a 30-day exclusive access to all the post launch downloadable content.
