Watch Dogs Legion will get no further updates as development winds down

Like most of Ubisoft’s open-world games nowadays, Watch Dogs Legion launched with an extensive post-launch roadmap in place, including free and paid DLCs rolling out over late 2020 and 2021. Now as we head into 2022, the Watch Dogs Legion team is moving on to new projects. 

In a blog post this week, Ubisoft confirmed that development on Watch Dogs Legion has now come to an end and the game will get no more content updates. Currently, the game’s online services are re-running previous seasonal events for players but eventually, online services for the game will go offline.

“TU 5.6 was our final update for Watch Dogs: Legion”, Ubisoft confirmed. “However, you can look forward to reward tracks in the Online Mode, containing both new and returning rewards. The current season 4 Rebels track, containing 80 ranks, will run until January 22, 2022, followed by Season 5 Stripes. After that, Seasons 3-5 will continue to cycle and return to the game, giving you the opportunity to acquire rewards you might have missed out on in the past.”

We don’t know what the Watch Dogs team will work on next. Perhaps in a few years time there will be a Watch Dogs 4. If that were to happen, I would like to see a return to having a central main character for the main story, with less of a focus on random NPC recruiting.
