- Pure Xbox6.0Watch Dogs: Legion sees DedSec return to a hugely impressive representation of near-future London that looks and sounds amazing but can't long cover for the fact the core gameplay here is repetitive, janky stuff that's barely evolved since the days of Aiden Pearce. Traversal is hampered by uninspired, tanky vehicles, combat is scruffy, enemy AI disappointing, and hacking and sneaking highly repetitive.
- 3rd-strike.com6.0The Online mode from Watch Dogs: Legion brings you the opportunity to play with up to four people. You can do unique missions and playlists together, or just have some fun. While the spider bot shooting arena seems original, the ‘normal’ missions are either a bit bland or have a touch of “unfair” to them, quickly making them less fun to spend time on. The addition of a loot-for-rank (playtime) system that’s split up into seasons made us turn away even more.
- PS Lifestyle6.0What you end up with is an experience that shows a ton of promise, but ends up being entirely average. It’s hard to call Watch Dogs Legion a bad game outright. It’s a serviceable, if traditional, open-world game with a boring story and novelty mechanics that play out better on paper than in execution. The PS5 version makes expected improvements to visuals and load times, but isn’t a standout example of a “next-gen” title.
- HookedGamers7.6Watch Dogs: Legion does most things right. The hacking component works amazingly well, letting players infiltrate locations with minimal attention from guards patrolling the areas when done correctly. Sneaking around and using the available cover works satisfactorily too, giving players the opportunity to take out guards one at a time.
- ZTGD6.5With how close Legion is releasing to Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla and Immortals Fenyx Rising it feels like Watch Dogs: Legion was left to fight for your attention and your money with less money put into development. I would recommend both Watch Dogs 1 & 2 as well as plenty of other Ubisoft experiences from the last few years before Legion at full price.
- Quarter to Three2.0The various disguises are helpful stealth aids, and the summonable flying drone makes it easy to collect stuff from roofs. But they’re trivially easy to replace. I have to do some busywork quest to get another character with that skill. Or not. It doesn’t matter enough to actually do it. And when I realize things don’t matter and I’m furthermore never going to care, it’s a pretty short trip to the uninstall option.

Watch Dogs Legion
En esta tercera entrega de la franquicia Ubisoft no entrega un título bastante irregular. Por el lado de la historia tenemos la peor de la trilogía debido a la falta de un protagonista con carisma y uno secundarios olvidables quizás con la excepción de la IA británica. En el lado del gameplay tenemos algo muy parecido a lo ya visto en entregas pasadas siendo la posibilidad de controlar a cualquier ciudadano la gran novedad de esta entrega. Esto último aunque interesante se termina sintiendo desaprovechado gracias a una falta de identidad en estos y a un diseño de niveles que aunque libre poco invita a experimentar con las distintas habilidades. En dónde no hay duda de la calidad del título es el la representación de Londres, Ubisoft nuevamente muestra su maestría para representar ciudades con el extra en la nueva generación de tener la opción de habilitar el Ray traicing consiguiendo un muy buen aspecto visual. También existe la posibilidad de activar los 60 fps. Lamentablemente en términos generales legión se siente como la entrega menos mejorable de la franquicia, tuvo buenas ideas pero la ejecución no fue la mejor.
Watch Dogs Legion
Its a very repetitive game that held so much potential to be a great game but it fell flat. The game lacked direction since it is one of the first game to get rid of the concept of NPC. You can play as anyone in the game except the 5 main bad guys so the voice acting took a hit. There were like hardly 6 voices pasted on different-looking characters. The Assassin's Creed DLC was done so poorly. Ubisoft trying to put magic and mystical powers in regular world never go hand in hand. The game could have been more grounded and better if it just went with WatchDogs Bloodline DLC as the main story which was actually well done and enjoyable throughout. Tip - Just download the Prestige Operative mod to get all the best characters in the game and I would recommend playing the entire game as Aiden or Wrench since their voice acting and dialogue are the best in the game.
Open World with A Twist
This is the 3rd watchdogs game I have played in this franchise. Another open-world RPG with stunning graphics and innovative gameplay. This game is one of a kind in my opinion. I have never played an open-world game that you can control in order for you to build a resistance. Another open world that lets me control some NPC is GTA V but it is not integrated with the main story itself. Watchdogs legion is another Ubisoft masterpiece due to its unique gameplay. Although it is clear that they recycled some of the elements from the previous titles, watchdogs Legion manages to stand out and remain unique as possible. The story is somehow lacking depth compared to Aiden Pierce's story way back. That's the only thing I wish I could've seen better. **VISUALS** _Artistry: 12/12_ _Technical Merit: 8/8_ **SOUND DESIGN** _Music: 8/12_ _Sound Effects & Vocals: 6/8_ **INTERACTION** _Control & Interface: 7/8_ _Player Agency: 6/8_ _Accessibility:3 /4_ **MECHANICS** _Feedback & Fun: 8/10_ _Depth: 2/5_ _Variety: 3/5_ **CHARACTER** _Narrative:7 /8_ _Heart: 5/6_ _Originality: 6/6_
Watch Dogs Legion
I personally enjoyed the assassin's creed mission, too bad this game's parkour is trash. hacking isn't as immersive as WD or WD2, but other than that it's fine actually. oh and there's no blackout :(

Certainly better than Watch Dogs 1 and 2. If you like the stealth approach, you can now infiltrate areas by using cargo drones or remote hacking through spider drones. You can do lethal or non-lethal attacks and hide the bodies. There's not much car chase missions like previous games which I found very annoying and stressful. Controlling and recruiting several characters is fun since they have different moves and skillsets which is the biggest feature of this game but I found the premium characters such as Aiden from the 1st game and the Assassin to be more fun to use.
Don't like that you don't have one main character you get attached to, the whole switching character things is mostly annoying but can be kinda cool at times, at least it means you can have one you like the look and style of, a little clunky
