Online mode finally rolling out to consoles and a roadmap for what's next
Available since yesterday, only on consoles for now, after multiple postponements, the online mode comes with an update. This still corrects several bugs present both in the single player mode and in the newly arrived online mode.
Regarding the online mode, it introduces a first game mode called
"Tactical Op", featuring up to four playable endgame content and offering five interconnected story missions. Outside of this mode, it is possible to wander the streets of London together for the good of its inhabitants and Dead Sec… or not.
Ubisoft also took the opportunity to share a roadmap up to August. On the program: several new agents to recruit, including Aiden Pearce, the protagonist of the first part. New game modes for the online mode, including two PvP, will appear in May. Watch Dogs: Legion's first paid DLC, called Bloodline, will be released in June. Finally, August will see a crossover event with Ubisoft's other major franchise, Assassin's Creed.
