Watch Dogs multiplayer will have “player invasion” elements, smartphone app detailed
Posted on 11 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
The multiplayer in Ubisoft’s upcoming game Watch Dogs will have elements of a game mechanic called “player invasion”, which means that players that aren’t explicitly in your game can come in and modify certain parameters or change small environmental obstacles seemingly without you ever seeing them. It’s something implemented into the game Dark Souls, but we’re unsure if Watch Dogs‘ version of the idea will be more in line with that adventure or if it will be something completely different.
On top of that, the game’s producer outlined the concept behind a smartphone app that will be coming out alongside the game this fall. If you’ve seen gameplay footage of Watch Dogs, you’ll know that the main character uses his smartphone to hack into city systems, ATMs, and much more. The smartphone app will allow players to “hack” into multiplayer games of Watch Dogs on the fly, presumably to modify in-game parameters similar to what you might do in the single player experience. I think that’s pretty dang awesome!

Want to get free Resident Evil: Revelations HD-related merchandise? Head over to London where Capcom has opened up what they’re calling the first ever blood-filled swimming pool. Of course, it isn’t actually filled with blood: It’s just a lot of water, a lot of red colouring, and floaties shapes like bodies and human entrails and things. You know, normal stuff.
Here’s the run-down:
– Open May 25th and 26th
– In Jupiter Wharf, London E3 2PL
– Ages 16 and older, with under 18 needed adult accompaniment
– Only 100 people allowed in each day, free tickets online
– Free prizes at the bottom of the pool for those “brave enough” to go down there
– PR statement: “Capcom are thrilled to able to create the world’s first blood swimming pool. Zombies have been kept very busy lately doing a variety of PR stunts, so rather than do the expected, we wanted to give them some time off for canal side relaxation in London. To non-zombies, the swimming pool will be shocking, gory and an incredibly disturbing experience – the perfect way to show that survival horror is back with a bang for Resident Evil Revelations”
