Watch Dogs Legion will no longer be updated, Ubisoft has said, and the game’s current multiplayer season will be its last.
In a blog post flagged via social media on Friday evening, Ubisoft said that the game’s 5.6 patch – released four months ago in September 2021 – was actually its final update.
The game’s fifth and final multiplayer season, which began at the weekend, will now be followed by repeats of seasons three, four and five on a cycle until servers are eventually switched off.
Set in a bleak post-Brexit London, Watch Dogs Legion arrived for PC, PlayStation and Xbox in October 2020 to lukewarm reviews. It has since received a selection of extra modes and characters (including one which is a neat Assassin’s Creed crossover), a story expansion starring Watch Dogs 1 protagonist Aiden Pearce, plus a standalone zombies experience in Watch Dogs: Legion of the Dead.
