You can play Watch Dogs offline, if you wish

Watch Dogs is in many ways a connected experience. You can count on a big multiplayer inclusion, but it’s the way in which the development team has seamlessly integrated other hackers into the experience that makes things all the more interesting.

Thankfully, if playing online or connecting with others isn’t your kind of thing, you won’t have to worry. Ubisoft Montreal senior producer has confirmed that Watch Dogs can be played “completely offline if you want.”
