The Watch Dogs universe has taken us to both America and England but its recent journey to Tokyo has made fans quite excited and I don’t blame them.
First released back in 2014 by Ubisoft, Watch Dogs was the first title in a current 3-part action-adventure series that sees the true power of hacking brought to the streets of Chicago, San Francisco and Greater London.

As it stands, the 3-games have received quite a mixed reception but with the overall premise promising endless possibilities, it is no wonder that fans are still captivated by its world.
That is why Watch Dogs: Tokyo is a new action-packed manga based on the bestselling title, Watch Dogs. Developed in association with Ubisoft Entertainment, its first volume was finally released on 23 April and its accompanying trailer is absolutely stunning.

The synopsis reads: “The Tokyo Metropolitan Government decided to introduce J-ctOS, an urban infrastructure management system developed by Blume Japan.
People's lives have changed completely due to the convenience of improved infrastructure, and the ease of interconnectivity. Everything is fine, if they don't think too hard about what lurks in the shadows behind closed doors at the Blume corporation...
Written by Shirato Seiichi with art from Kamo Shuuhei, Watch Dogs: Tokyo aims to take the corrupt setting of Watch Dogs into Japan and despite already being published in its titular country, it is now making its way across the globe.
However, this may be the only Watch Dogs content we get from now on with recent rumours claiming that the game series is “dead and buried”.

This sad but unsurprising news comes after its most recent title, Watch Dogs: Legion, failed to hit the mark when it was released back in 2020. It seems like yet another blow to Ubisoft.
