Moreover, Watch Dogs: Legion of the Dead is now available for Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, on the Epic Games Store and Ubisoft Store for Windows PC, Stadia, Luna and Ubisoft +. Watch Dogs: Legion of the Dead allows for a rogue-lite experience in which you must “Survive-as-Anyone” against the threat of the immortal and hostile environment of the dystopian city of London in ruins. Alone, or up to four friends in co-op mode, you will need to create your own strategy of how to reach the extraction point for each round and collect as many supplies as possible along the way. You will be able to use abilities like Swarm of Bees to decimate enemies, the RA Cloak to escape danger, and the Combat Spider-Bot equipped with a protective turret.
