If any other game is as hyped as Cyberpunk 2077, it has to be Ubisoft’s Watch Dogs: Legion. The third installment in the Watch Dogs series is a big exploration in the open-world genre. Leaks were bound to come for such a big title and so they did. 

Watch Dogs: Legion is an action-adventure game by Ubisoft set in a fictional futuristic London. What sets the game apart from others in the open-world genre is the fact that players will be able to control multiple characters. Additionally, the characters you recruit can also be lost during gameplay; making the game one of its kind. 

The game’s plot revolves around Dedsec, the same hacker group from the previous installment. The group continues revolting against authoritarians striving to make that big change.

One of the operatives named Phil Ahuja, a football hooligan is equipped with what looks like a taser gun and has the Spider Tank gadget. His abilities include Rally Cry that will call his friends for the fight and Tough Drunk that’ll help him take less damage when in a bout. 

The Spy Brian Casey has a silenced MP9, a Spy Watch that jams enemy weapons, and a Spy car that reminds us of a vintage Aston Martin model.

The last operator image that was leaked is of Margareta Dragoescu, a correctional officer. This particular operator could play a big role in the game. The uniform gives access to police stations and with the “Bail Out” feature, you get a Team Arrest Release.

If these weren’t enough, the final image from the leak shows a character standing still while a combat team approaches. The image has a red circle rounded at the date 16 Sept. This could be hinting at the release date of the game.
