  • Summary: Set before the events of Watch Dogs: Legion, the DLC expansion introduces a new storyline that tasks original Watch Dogs protagonist Aiden Pearce with stealing a robot-controlling device from Broca Tech – only to see the job go south as Watch Dogs 2’s Wrench interferes. Check out the trailerSet before the events of Watch Dogs: Legion, the DLC expansion introduces a new storyline that tasks original Watch Dogs protagonist Aiden Pearce with stealing a robot-controlling device from Broca Tech – only to see the job go south as Watch Dogs 2’s Wrench interferes. Check out the trailer below to see how Aiden’s carefully laid plans unravel, and what he now risks as a result. Both Aiden and Wrench are playable during Bloodline’s story, and with the Season Pass or an in-game purchase, they can be added to your DedSec Resistance in the main campaign or in the Online mode. Each also comes with new abilities: Aiden can aim in slow-mo after a takedown, gets a damage buff with a well-timed reload, or disable nearby electronics with a System Crash. Wrench – in addition to an MPX SMG and LTL grenade launcher, both with custom skins – carries a big custom hammer named Lady Smash, deploys mini flashbangs called Ninja Balls, and can summon a custom drone named Sergei.

    In the end, it is just more Watch Dogs, but it is also equal to the best Watch Dogs has ever been and that is something no one expects from a piece of DLC.

    Watch Dogs: Legion - Bloodline offers a solid chunk of explosive enjoyment, with an excellent story that returns to where it all began.

    Ultimately, Watch Dogs: Legion – Bloodline is a bit of a mixed bag. There's fun to be had here, but the story driving the expansion could have spent more time in the oven. Being able to play as Aiden and Wrench is a nice addition, with each offering a distinct style of play.

    Despite its strong narrative focus, Bloodline is a sequel to Pearce’s Watch Dogs but a prequel to the events of Watch Dogs Legion; as such, we (at least partially) know what will happen next. I’m glad we had a chance to dip into Pearce’s journey again, but I’m hoping that any subsequent dealings with the character will be fully forward in time. If you’re a fan of Watch Dogs Legion — and Watch Dogs in general — the price of admission is certainly worth it.

    Watch Dogs: Legion - Bloodline injects new fun into the vanilla game, but stumbles a bit. Returning characters improve the narrative, but this DLC add-on lacks the base game’s free-form, squad-based action.

    Bloodline represents Ubisoft going back to its roots on the Watch Dogs franchise, and your mileage will vary. Either way, it doesn't feel like a Legion DLC.

    Watch Dogs Legion: Bloodline tries to be a love letter to fans of the series by bringing back two iconic characters as the protagonists, but in doing so, it removes the one gameplay mechanic that made Watch Dogs: Legion so memorable. Without characters to study, befriend, and recruit, Bloodline is a more watered-down open-world experience than the base game it's tied to. Worse is the fact that it doesn't expand on the base game at all. With no new regions to explore, activities to engage in, or gear to unlock, it's a pretty barebones package overall.

    If you are a Watch Dogs 1 fan like me then u won’t be disappointed with this DLC. I was never a big fan of WD2 because I didn’t really enjoyIf you are a Watch Dogs 1 fan like me then u won’t be disappointed with this DLC. I was never a big fan of WD2 because I didn’t really enjoy the tone and when legion came out I was definitely upset that it didn’t really feel like watch dogs anymore, but this DLC fixed that. Bringing back Aiden Pearce was the best choice they could make. I loved him in the original and he’s just as good here. We get to see more of his story and the relationship between him and Jackson is great. We get to see some cameos like Jordi and even Wrench from WD2 and he’s fantastic. The chemistry between him and Aiden is so enjoyable that I would honestly watch a whole movie with just those 2. All I can say is this DLC is great. You can probably get around 10 hours with it and u can also play Aiden and Wrench in the main campaign as well if you got the season pass so there’s tones of fun to be had. It’s sad though that this short DLC is better than the entire Campaign of Legion, so Hopefully the next entry will be better.

    - Anyways this is a must play    … Expand

    It's solid dlc as expected, because now this game finally has main character(s). But most importantly Aiden is back. London is still boringIt's solid dlc as expected, because now this game finally has main character(s). But most importantly Aiden is back. London is still boring (sadly) and city design still sucks, Ubisoft needs to learn from either Watch Dogs 1 or GTA 5 for Watch Dogs 4 city design. But at least now there's playable missions that are actually fun, unlike Legion's main story that was awful. Hopefully Aiden is main character in Watch Dogs 4, because this "play as anyone" system simply didn't work. Watch Dogs 1 is easily best of this series and amazing game in general, so while i can pretend that Legion is now similar to WD1 (thanks to Aiden), it actually still isn't. City design is awful and driving is worse than in WD1. But it has drones, so that's kind of fun. Overall good dlc, awful main game, but if you pretend that Aiden is main character in this game and you only play as him it can be somewhat decent (as you can play whole main story as Aiden now), but Ubisoft SERIOUSLY needs to improve on this whole series with WD4.… Expand

Aiden is a serious bloke while Wrench is the charismatic funny guy. The Larson storyline was very intriguing and kept the suspense intact till the pay off. This is a prequel so if you are gonna play the game, play this one first and then the base game as either Wrench or Aiden, the game will become twice as more fun rather than a random NPC.… Expand
