More on the way … probably
Watch Dogslooks dreamy, doesn’t it? Ubisoft certainly thinks so, which is why the company is betting big on their new IP, going so far in as to plan out ten years of the series’ future.
In an interview with the Guardian, the comparison betweenWatch Dogs‘ future and Bungie’s ten year plan forDestinywas made, to which Senior Producer Dominic Guay responded, “Honestly that’s what we’re doing too. Here’s the way we think about it: even if we change our minds mid-course or after shippingWatch Dogsand say ‘scratch that, we’ll do something else’, the planning helps to make a strong core … If there’s a clear long-term plan, you’ll have stronger characters, the universe will be more coherent.”
So while a plan is in motion, it’s nothing that would shackle Ubisoft to the franchise (such as bad sales) should they choose to put it on the back burner. Given Ubisoft’s recentcommitment to annual franchisesthough, I think we can expect much moreWatch Dogsto come.
