Ubisoft Says They Will Take Their Time With Watch Dogs 2

With Watch Dogs being the fastest selling new IP in the history of the video games industry, it’s no surprise that the company is thinking about a sequel. However, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot says that the company won’t rush Watch Dogs 2 and will instead take their time developing the game.  Guillemot even said that they may turn it into an annual franchise.

“To start with we will take time on Watch Dogs, to make sure – like with Assassin’s Creed II – we can come back with something that takes full advantage of what everything we created to do with the first game,” said Guillemot.

“After that, we will see, it depends on our teams. What we try and do is have different teams that take care of a brand, and give each team enough time. So I can’t say now if it will be an annual release, we will see in time how it works out depending on the overall ability of the very talented teams that look after the brand.”

“Watch Dogs did a lot better than we expected sales wise. And we are still tweaking some things in the gameplay in some areas. We have built some tools and processes that could make it a huge brand for the company. And the subject of hacking is endless in possibilities, so we think there’s big potential to astonish people in the long-run.”

  1. Excellent, Ubisoft knows their stuff! I’m sure that the sequel will be amazing since they will be putting a lot of care into it. Maybe it will come to the Wii U right away this time. I just hope that they allow you to jump this time…

    1. Đonko of the first men

      It won’t come to Wii U, like nothing ever comes to Wii U…

      Sony on the other hand, knows the game quite well, they give free shit, make alot of options, network things, games, contracts…

      I’ll see what Nintendo can do tommorow, but i recon they’ll manage to dissapoint me third year in a row

      1. By the time it comes out after being delayed twice it will be out on 9th gen systems. Either it will be exclusive or multiplat with Nintendo and whoever the other is left. Cause Sony or Microsoft wont be around in the GAMING INDUSTRY next gen.

      2. Đonko of the first men

        Because I like to keep my expectations unrealistic ally high for Nintendo while being a lazy shit having extremely low expectations for the other two. Why? Because I’m a complete stupid ass.

      1. Damn Selina you are fine as hell. Forget Sasori why would you want to hook up with a Congo ape. Latina women are the most beautiful women in the world and your no exception ;)

  2. *Ubisoft*: “Watch Dogs 2 will be releasing on all platforms apart from Wii U!”

    “Bu…but, why is that Ubi?”

    *Ubisoft*: “Well Watch Dogs 1 sales on the Wii U are abysmal”

    “…But Ubi…You still haven’t released Watch Dogs 1 on Wii U yet….”

    *Ubisoft*: “Yeah…umm, it’s nintendo’s fault!”

  3. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

    “We want to take our time making Watch Dogs 2, but we also want the franchise to be released on an annual basis”…

    Ok…

    1. Hey wassup, Commander? :D I wanted to let you and others know that I officially have my Wii U back! I’ve been playing Mario Kart 8! It’s awesome! I’m really happy! Lol.

      1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

        I’m pretty bored with the Sonyan conference it’s embarrasing…

        Even losing to the Xbots by far…

        Nice!

        I will buy mine on wednesday if possible otherwise this week 100%…

        1. Đonko of the first men

          that is even above your level of damage control…

          i wonder what you will say about a trainwreck called nintendo

          1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

            How that was even “damage control” I don’t get…

            But you Sonyans always had reversed logics…

            And everything depends on what High Command shows…

            If they show Zelda U even if it’s at the level of SS then we already won…

            1. Đonko of the first men

              you really are an idiot, can’t you fucking remember that i own a wii u?are you that retarded?also zelda is not what it used to be, so it’s not the franchise everyone jerks off to…why would it be like that, it’s just a name now, there are so many games that have improved on the formula

              the only reason you’re saying that you’ll win if zelda is shown in any format is because you know it’ll be shown, they’ve already announced that…you’ll say they’ve won if they pulled out a stick and said “it’s our new product Stick U IN THE FUCKING ASS you retarded fanboy

  4. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

    The Sonyans so far, just like the Xbots did, are mostly showing off multiplatform games…

    Without them, both would be nothing…

      1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

        Admiral, I guess you are a bit offended that the Electrons copies your Counter-Strike franchise with BF….

        1. Valve Admiral GLaDOS

          I am especially when they couldn’t make it any less buggier so that it could at least have a decent chance, it never will, neither will CoD.

          1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

            Indeed…

            It’s funny how both our empire and your repiblic were the true foundations of the FPS genre…

            Us with Goldeneye and yours with CR…

            And now these lower life-forms have destroyed our legacy…

    1. Underpowered PC boxes gets their downgraded PC shooters! Sonyans and Xbots are so pathetic! Blind kids!!!

      1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

        Indeed, without their pathetic Electrons and Ubisoftians, they wouldn’t even sell a third of what they always sell…

  5. They took their time with the 1st one or did they just add a bunch of blah and rush it.. blah nintendo watch dogs? 1 but 2 blah boooooooooobiesoft

      1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

        The funny thing is, it’s not a dream, it’s a fact…

        Nintendomination is at hand…

        1. Đonko of the first men

          zelda beats uncharted?hardly…we’ll see, we’ll see, if it’s another linear-motion controlled-tutorial based-cliche-visually terrible-musically unmemorable-easy to beat-no depth at all piece of shit like skyward sword was, i think nintendo will fall, and that will be their end. most of their fans will abandon the ship, it will be a lost cause, and goodbye to sweet nintendo and their ips.i just hope they sell them to someone like sony

          1. Tallon Ridley XIII: Kalas

            Aw. Don’t like Skyward Sword? Too bad because it exists & it’s part of the Zelda canon.

          2. Đonko of the first men

            Although my argument is invalid because Commander never mention Uncharted and all my logic is flawed. I’ve been exposed.

            1. Đonko of the first men

              by what logic?what does zelda have these days that other games did not do better

              graphics?no
              music?there is better
              soul?not since TP
              open world?no
              immersion?no
              voice acting?no

              Sorry, you can say it’s the best, but the fact is that it hasn’t been the best for quite some time

              also oot is my favourite game, so don’t call me a sony fanboy, i’ve probably played more zelda games then you have, also i own a wii u, you DO NOT

              1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

                Still doesn’t change the fact that my logic is valid and yours is not because unlike you, I’m not evil…

  6. Since Ubisoft decided not to bring anymore Assassin’s Creed games to the Wii U, I don’t care about them anymore.

    1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

      They are the new Electron Army 2.0…

      And on a sidenote, the Sonyans are clearly pulling the plug on the Vita…

      No new games for it, what a waste of resources and harm on nature…

    1. Didn’t see the Sony pres, but the xbox one presentation was disappointing and confusing. There is a really interesting game, let’s switch it to some guy talking about how Duke Nukem is his favorite character, now lets switch something else that is random. What was the first game about…who knows…

  7. Nintendo need to show more than just new Zelda game. because Sony and Microsoft show halo and Uncharted 4 and both companies show a lot games and exclusive content and dlc. Nintendo needs to destroy Microsoft and Sony with one punch. If Nintendo doesn’t show something amazing this year. I am going to sell my Wii u and buy Ps4. because i have been with the Wii u day one and this is already the 3rd year and we don’t have amazing content or epic games. i am sorry Nintendo but i need more than just zelda and mario.

  8. Nintendo Commander must be condemned for his sins and destruction of unwanted Down syndrome fetuses. He preaches an empire of unfulfilled promises.. The one they call nintendarnia yet it’s rivers flow with the blood of dead franchises and it’s hills filled with the remenance of lost wars to the mighty Sonyans. The xbots have entered the city gates and have destroyed the fanboys and defiled its women. Reggie Fils-Aimes has been made a mockery of in his own household and it’s king Iwata dying in his deathbed with an empire showing no remorse for a dying man. dead Down syndromes everywhere!!!

        1. so a long time huh lmao apparently i’ve been here posting fucking videos and shit. That nintendo is my blood guy is a straight up whack job.

  9. Nintendo Knight Equilibrium

    They should put a chat box on this site if is possible It will be great if there’s one
    Enough said not really important

  10. oh dear, I hope watch dog does not become an annual franchise like assassin’s creed. I kind of guess the sequel was already planned before the release of watch dog but to be frank if you had 6 months delay with the first one why on earth would you make it annual….

  11. Somebody please deport this escaped Ape back to the Zoo he came from,The zoo’s in Lagos Nigeria are pretty weak I’m terms of security

    Lol

    The perks of living in a 3rd world country

    Sasorry the Nigerian Ape living as a illegal immigrant In America

  12. Lawl, damage control. Ubisoft can halfass it six ways to hell and it’d still sell because of the power of marketing and dumb teenagers.
