A Fake Game?
Ubisoft Montreal included a Side Operation in Watch Dogs 2 concerning video game leaks, namely those from Ubisoft’s studios. Marcus finds out about a new game coming up, so of course he just has to go get his hands on some inside information. The Operation in question is titled Ubistolen, and it tasks the player with heading to Ubisoft SF to snatch up a trailer. The mission brief reads as:
“DedSec caught wind of a trailer being developed by Ubisoft SF. Who knows what game it’s for and who cares, so long as we get followers by leaking it.”
It’s most likely poking fun at their bout of leaks over the past few years, particularly with Assassin’s Creed and the first leaked shot of what would eventually become Marcus. There’s a full trailer hidden in the mission, but nobody is sure if it’s for a real game or not. It’s now all over the internet, just like the developers predicted in the game.
