Watch Dogs eBook Announced

by on April 17, 2014
 

UbiSoft have announced that it will be releasing a digital novel set within the Watch Dogs universe, titled //n/Dark Clouds.

The book will be written by prolific cyberpunk author John Shirley, who hopes to add some texture to the Watch Dogs universe through this novel.

The book is only receiving an electronic release, but this is apparently due to many extra elements that will embellish the reading experience.

John describes his tale as such, “The novel introduces Mick Wolfe, an ex-military, who get caught in a dangerous game in Chicago’s hyper connected and violent underground. Working with Thomas Geffroyd and Kevin Shortt at Ubisoft to develop the book was a rocking experience – Ubisoft is right out there on the frontier of videogame development. I couldn’t ask for more inspiration”.

Watch_Dogs //n/Dark Clouds will be available in English, French, Italian, German and Spanish on May 27, 2014, the same day the game is out. It will be available in two digital formats: an upgraded e-book version with interactive elements including videos and image and a classic e-book.

If writing ability was a flavour, I would be the warming embrace of apple and cinnamon - wonderfully familiar and pleasantly spiced. Ever the optimist, I spend most of my game time diligently failing at fighting games (BlazBlue and Persona 4 Arena being the preferred titles), Monster Hunter and Dark Souls. As you can surely ascertain from such preferences I'm a gamer at my most content when a title is punishing me, abusing my feeble abilities and forcing me to improve myself in order to overcome life affirming challenges. Feel free to question my opinions and such on Twitter, @Dalagonash, or find me on every gaming network available as Dalagonash.
