Watch Dogs 2 exclusive interview- Making Hacking Essential

Watch Dogs 2 is set for launch around the world on Xbox One and PS4 on the 15th of November 2016. It’s an open world game which puts you in the part of Marcus Holloway, a gifted hacker getting up to mischief in San Francisco.

It’s definitely the sequel to the 2014 original but a lot has changed for this second time out, and Ubisoft was intent on showing that in a recent hands on preview.

I also got the chance to chat to creative director Jonathan Morin who led me through some of the new features. One thing I had noticed after around three hours of play was the difficulty - Marcus can die pretty easily, especially when the bullets start to fly.
