‘Watch Dogs: Legion’ review: Strangers like me
- Watch Dogs: Legion is an open-world, third-person shooter in which you can recruit anyone in London to your team to help fight back against oppressive forces.
- Watch Dogs: Legion launched on October 29th, 2020 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
- The Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 versions of the game will be available on November 10th and 12th, respectively, which are the release dates for the new consoles.
The hook of Watch Dogs: Legion is undeniably appealing: Be anyone. Rather than playing as a single protagonist destined to save the world, your job in the third Watch Dogs game is to roam the streets of London and recruit as many NPCs as you deem necessary to create a resistance army capable of fighting back against the oppressive forces that control the city.
On paper, this might sound like the makings of a compelling game, both narratively and structurally. But the problem, as they say, is that the game isn’t played on paper, and the area where this game consistently lacks is in the execution of its many, many ideas.
