Posted on October 4, 2013 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U
Ubisoft is bringing a pair of games to this year’s New York Comic-Con. Watch_Dogs as well as South Park: The Stick of Truth will have a presence at the expo next weekend.
Attendees can expect the following from Watch_Dogs’ appearance:
At the Watch Dogs theater, the adversarial mode of the companion app, Watch Dogs – ctOS Mobile, will be highlighting some of the ways players can invade other players’ games within the world of Watch Dogs. Watch Dogs – ctOS Mobile delivers revolutionary dual-screen gameplay and takes the player’s experience beyond the console. A real-time companion game, Watch Dogs – ctOS Mobile allows users to connect and compete with each other from anywhere, at any time. In Watch Dogs, players will take on the role of Aiden Pearce, a new type of vigilante who, with the help of his smartphone, will use his ability to hack into Chicago’s central operating system (ctOS) and control almost every element of the city. Fans who pre-order Watch Dogs from Amazon.com will receive an exclusive free t-shirt (while supplies last).
Ubisoft will also be running a competition, which initially began at PAX Prime:
The Next Level competition, which debuted at PAX Prime this year, will be back and bigger than ever. Attendees can put their gaming skills to the test in a head-to-head competition comprised of a variety of games, genres and platforms for a chance to become one of the daily overall winners. Gamers will try their hand at some of Ubisoft’s most popular titles including Assassin’s Creed® IV Black Flag™, Just Dance® 2014 and The Mighty Quest for Epic Loot™, and players will face-off in a mystery title in the final round of competition.
Each day, the winner of The Next Level competition will walk away with the ultimate gaming package that includes a Falcon Northwest Tiki gaming PC powered by an NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 780 and a complete next-generation console package including pre-ordered hardware and tickets to PAX East 2014.
