Only three weeks remain until Watch Dogs Legion<\/em><\/strong> finally launches, and now that Ubisoft has detailed much of what fans can expect from the base game, it has opened up more on what\u2019s coming afterwards. Today, the publisher laid out its plans for Watch Dogs<\/em>\u00a0Legion<\/em>\u2019s DLC<\/a>, revealing in the process that the game\u2019s post-launch content will let players run around its version of London as a member of Assassin\u2019s Creed<\/em>\u2019s Assassin Brotherhood.<\/p>\n

Along with new modes and missions, additional content will come with the game\u2019s season pass. This will include a story expansion called Bloodlines<\/em>, the DLC that will star original Watch Dogs<\/em> protagonist Aiden Pearce<\/a>. The expansion will see Pearce team up with a number of other playable characters, including Wrench from Watch Dogs 2<\/em> and a new character named Mina, a subject of transhuman experiments with the ability to control minds.<\/p>\n

Rounding off the new characters is Darcy, a modern-day Assassin. Fans have known that Legion<\/em> will reference Assassin\u2019s Creed<\/em> to some extent, as Ubisoft has confirmed that the game\u2019s wide selection of playable NPCs will include a descendant of an Assassin\u2019s Creed<\/em> protagonist<\/a>. And now they will be able to play as an actual Assassin as well, though Ubisoft didn\u2019t offer any clues as to Darcy\u2019s abilities or role in Bloodlines<\/em>\u2019 story.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s been plenty of speculation among fans lately that a crossover between the two franchises could happen, given the connections between Watch Dogs<\/em> and Assassin\u2019s Creed<\/em><\/a>. However, Ubisoft says that Darcy\u2019s inclusion isn\u2019t setting up any sort of crossover, as it actually isn\u2019t canon to the AC<\/em> games. \u201cWe’re not saying they’re in the same canon or building something massive that way,\u201d producer Lathieeshe Thillainathan told GameSpot. \u201cIt’s just to really have fun and build a character that is heavily inspired by Assassin’s Creed<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n
