If you wanna play it and never got around to it, Watch Dogs is free to Uplay accounts through mid day 11/13.

either launch Uplay from your PC & click on the banner or go here

The Link says free trial but the language on the page say it's permanent. Just have to claim it before the deadline.

They did this with The Crew last year as well

Thanks for the heads up, I quickly added yet another free game to my ever growing library of free games I'lll have to play whenever I upgrade to a new pc.

Played through the PS4 version over the summer, was pretty good, much better than folks made it out to be.

Kickass! Thanks!

Neat! Watch Dogs 1 is a great game, with some questionable bits here and there.

I enjoyed Watch Dogs 1 a lot more than the sequel, but already own it on Uplay. Still cool for some that wanna check it out for the low admission price of free.

Actually quite interested in Watch Dogs, but Uplay, ehhh...

Excellent. Thanks for the heads-up.

I reluctantly passed on that game when it first came out.
It had gone from my most anticipated release after that first E3 showing to "maybe in a sale" and then to completely out of mind.

I may give it a try if I get some free time.

Are there any good PC mods for this game? GTA has a pretty active mod community so would be nice to replay this game with wacky mods.

Cheers for the heads up!

I think I got it on PS4 for about $15 on sale? It was fun for a bit but I lost interest somewhat quickly. Plus the sequel hit pretty soon after, which I found far more engaging.

Still, if you were ever curious about it, free is pretty damn good for it. Might pull up Uplay on my computer later and snag it.

Almost every Ubisoft game uses Uplay. Even if you buy it on steam, it still makes you launch it through uplay. There's no avoiding it.

@puchiko: I think there is something called 'Worse Mod' for the game that improves the graphics a whole lot. I'm not kidding about the name, it is literally called 'TheWorse Mod'.

I bit the bullet, signed up and went to acquire it, and it's "sold out". Just fucking wow. I wish I hadn't given them my email address.

@sinusoidal: now they know where you live!

It's no longer sold out. I guess they got more copies of their entirely digital game in. Now, time to find the time to play it.
