<p><em>Watch Dogs </em>was a game that caught many people off guard when it was shown off at last years E3. Everyone thought that it was going to be the definitive next gen launch title. The new bar that all next gen games would be judged by. Then we got delays which ended up pushing the game back past the next gen consoles launch window. It was then pushed to early 2014 but when that beginning of that year came around we were given another delay notice by the <em>Watch Dogs </em>development team.</p>
<p>Eventually we started hearing rumors that Ubisoft had cancelled <em>Watch Dogs </em>and that the game was never going to see the light of day. Fortunately rumors of that are now dashed and <em>Watch Dogs</em> enthusiasts such as myself finally have a solid date to which we can put the game down on our calender for launch day. <em><br />
</em></p>
<p>Ubisoft finally revealed the launch day this morning; <em>Watch Dogs </em>official release date is May 27th 2014. Now that fans finally have a solid release date the only hard choice is what gaming console your going to get the game for. Ubisoft also <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGf35yUj4qo">released a new trailer</a> showing off more of the story and explaining Aiden Pierce&#8217;s motivations and more of why we will be putting Chicago through the hacking runaround when the games releases in 2 months.</p>
