All it takes is a flick of the finger and we are connected with our friends. We buy the latest gadgets and equipment. We find out what's happening in the world. But with the same movement, a digital shadow is created that grows larger and larger. With every connection, we leave a digital trail that records our every move: our likes as well as our dislikes. And it's not just people - every major city is connected these days. The urban infrastructure is monitored and controlled by complex systems.

In Watch Dogs, this system is called the Central Operating System (ctOS). It controls most of the city's technology and has important information about every inhabitant. You play Aiden Pearce, a brilliant hacker and former gangster whose criminal past led to a bloody family tragedy. Now you're on the hunt for the people who wronged your family, and you have the ability to monitor and hack everyone around you by manipulating everything connected to the city's network. Access the ubiquitous surveillance cameras, download personal information to find a target, control traffic lights and public transportation... and much more. Use the city of Chicago as your ultimate weapon and take revenge in your own personal way.

• Hack the city - Watch Dogs takes place in a fully simulated city where you can control public transportation in real time with your smartphone. Anything connected to the city's ctOS can become your weapon.
• Street Justice - In a city where violence is best answered with violence, you have the skills to take the fight to the streets. In total, you'll have access to an arsenal of over 30 traditional weapons.
• Full Power - Get behind the wheel of more than 65 vehicles, each equipped with state of the art handling and driving physics, and explore the vast city while completing missions.
• Everything under control - The all-new Disrupt Engine, custom programmed for Watch Dogs, utilizes advanced technologies to deliver stunning graphics and an incredibly realistic gameplay experience.
• Dynamic Navigation - Watch Dogs not only allows you to use the ctOS to your advantage, but also your surroundings. Take shortcuts through buildings or climb across rooftops to reach your destination in a realistic Chicago.
