  • 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.

    Bloodline expands on Watch Dogs Legion's London, with new missions, returning characters, and a slightly different setting to explore. While it doesn't add much in the way of new features, it's the perfect reason to come back to the Old Smoke and give it the middle finger once again.

    If you’re a big fan of the original Watch Dogs, there’s no doubt you’ll get a kick out of stepping into Aiden Pearce’s Iconic shoes once more. Watch Dogs Legion: Bloodline tells a decent story, but it doesn’t do a great deal to expand the game’s world in any meaningful way. It’s another excuse to roam around London and gawp at the beautiful sights – but aside from one truly standout gameplay section, that’s about it.

    Watch Dogs Legion is a better game these days, and Bloodline manages to build a stronger narrative out of its various mechanics and gameplay systems. It’s more of the same under the surface, but playable characters Aiden and Wrench bring new enjoyment to the core campaign and evolving online modes, while simultaneously padding out the series’ overall lore with their own storyline.

    If you have good memories of Aiden Pearce and Wrench, Bloodline is probably for you.

    The first narrative expansion of Watch Dogs Legion: Bloodline is a strange creature: a sort of hybrid between the classic course of the series and the more libertarian approach followed with the latest iteration of the brand. Although the DLC does not always manage to find the right balance between its two natures, generating some fluctuations both on the playful and on the narrative side, the result is a fun and smooth experience, which ultimately manages to achieve what is its goal number one: to offer early-stage fans a functional closure to Aiden Pearce's story.

    Watch Dogs: Legion - Bloodline is a shallow narrative expansion, with a good storyline undermined by a lazy structure and the choice of giving far less importance to London, which was the best element of the original game.

    Finally! Wrench (and Aiden) as playable characters.

    The story of WD 1 was too serious and lame and WD2 tried to hard to be hip and funny.

    In WD Legion: Bloodline we finally have a great balance of those things. The chemistry between the characters Aiden and Wrench (and also between Jordi and Wrench) is perfect and very entertaining. It’s really cool to see them interact with each other.

    I think especially the voice acting of Wrench is great. He is also my favourite character of the series.

    I really hope they will be the main protagonists in a next WD game too. Cause the Dlc was way to short. I need more of this! :D

    But the villain was a little bit boring. Ubisoft, please come up with an interesting one next time!

    ****UPDATE**** 10 out 10 for a DLC!!! Just finished this and I wish this was the original story with the original game. They could have done****UPDATE**** 10 out 10 for a DLC!!! Just finished this and I wish this was the original story with the original game. They could have done so much with it but to see them package this in a DLC for Legions.....AMAZING!!!! So well executed.......Play it!

    If you are a fan of Aden from Watch Dogs then this is a pretty excellent experience in London and on the PS5! It's awesome and I had fun playing Legion with one character instead of recruiting all the time. Don't get me wrong and the recruiting mechanics where great but I prefer one character that I can upgrade and build on like Watch Dogs 1 & 2. Bloodline is a solid DLC and I highly recommend jumping back into London with Aden Pearce.

    This is what fans from watch dogs 1 and watch dogs 2 wanted to play. Likable characters are very important and legion normal game doesn't deliver that

    Okay i'm serious this time. THIS is what fans want. Not some live service or "recruit every npc ever", no. They want solid story and likableOkay i'm serious this time. THIS is what fans want. Not some live service or "recruit every npc ever", no. They want solid story and likable characters. This DLC is watch dogs done right! I truly hope that they make Watch Dogs 3 (or should it be called 4 now?) about Aiden's story that takes place somewhere between Watch Dogs 2 and Legion, somewhere in America. I would be fine with some additional playable character in certain missions, but overall it should be Aiden's story. It would sell A LOT. Expand

It’s also great to haveIt’s totally awesome to have Aiden Pearce back in Watch Dogs! I loved Watch Dogs #1- the best out of the series. It’s also great to have Wrench back from WD2. This is a better approach to a story than the main game. Having one or two key people instead of playing as anyone really makes the game & story better. You actually care about the characters. The missions are pretty interesting. They give you something different from the main game. My main critique is that it’s too short. I would have liked to have seen 10-15 hours for the main story. But it’s a DLC- so we take what we can get. You can also then play as Aiden or Wrench in the main game if you buy the full Season Pass. This was a great tie in to the past in the series & I’m glad I spent the money to be able to play this. Definitely recommend. Expand

    Nothing new added some more new missions, does not bring any new to the game. If you are a big fan I recommend it, if not you can leave it. Sorry.
