Good and bad news for gamers interested in the PC version of Watch Dogs 2. Bad news first, it’s been delayed from November 15 to November 29, so it won’t launch alongside the console versions which are still coming November 15. Ubisoft announced this on Tuesday in a blog post, claiming that they are “committed to quality”, so they need more time to work on. It’s good to see Ubisoft addressing their quality control standards – especially since they are betting highly on this game.
Hopefully, these extra two weeks of development will mean the game runs beautifully instead of being another Assassin’s Creed: Unity (or even the first Watch Dogs). Ubisoft also announced Watch Dogs 2 on PC will feature 4K and “Ultra Textures”, which gamers with powerful rigs can toggle on or off.
Below are the system requirements for the game on PC.
