Watch Dogs 2 is still in an early stage of development, where a lot of gameplay details and other information such as the release date and platforms supported are still unknown. More so, the press conference of Ubisoft did not give a clue about the said title despite the fact that many fans are expecting it.

Considering the original release of the game, there is quite the pressure to bring a lot of improvement to this sequel. A look into another game, however, gives a reminder of Watch Dogs in terms of the graphics.

As previously reported on this news site, there have been a few speculations about Watch Dogs 2. The first was based on the LinkedIn profile of a Ubisoft employee, which leaked the development of the title for the PS4 and the Xbox One. The rumored release date would also be around June or July 2016. Of course, these should be taken with caution until more official announcements have been made.

In a news report covering the press conference of Ubisoft during the E3 event last week, it showed that Watch Dogs 2 did not make the slightest appearance. Gamers have pegged the publisher to be one that would "overdress" games by presenting intense gameplay and exquisite graphics on trailers, though the reality would be a lot less.

This was what happened in the said title, which certainly hurt a lot of expectations. Nonetheless, fans are still being considerate and are looking forward to the sequel. As noted in the article, the main surprise from Ubisoft was that of the Ghost Recon.

While Watch Dogs 2 did not make an appearance in the E3, a report from AttackOfTheFanBoy compares the demo of Tom Clancy's The Division on Xbox One to it. This is because the graphics were not at par with how the title was promoted through the trailers. Nonetheless, even when the features and the interactions of the characters were the world were not as great as expected, the game was still found to be fun and worth following.

Watch Dogs 2 has yet to make interesting reveals from Ubisoft, taking note of the fact that it needs to do a lot or real improvements to the title. Rather than just making stunning promotions, the actual experience of the game should be to each gamer's satisfaction. Fans should stay posted for more updates to come.
