Ubisoft's Watch Dogs franchise, known for its hacker-themed third-person shooters, is venturing into the mobile gaming world! However, this isn't a traditional mobile game port. Instead, Watch Dogs: Truth, an interactive audio adventure, has launched on Audible.
Players will shape the narrative by making crucial decisions that guide Dedsec's actions. This choose-your-own-adventure style, a format dating back to the 1930s, places players in a near-future London setting where Dedsec confronts a new threat, aided by the AI, Bagley.
