How I hacked a car then ran over a dog that wasn’t watching.
Watch Dogs 2 seems to be borrowing a little of Saints Row’s anarchy, and that’s a good thing. I got to play it at E3 this year, and the slightly cheekier tone just about let me forgive all the hacktivist banter that I’m at least five years too old not to wince at. Ubi’s avowed intent to let us choose our own approach to its sandbox missions seems sincere, too.
After Ubisoft showed off a story mission, in which new protagonist Marcus Holloway breaks into a penthouse using a crane, I got to sample some of the open-world side missions set on the vast San Francisco map. This landmass is at least twice as big as Chicago, and encompasses Oakland, Marin County (I hope Skywalker Ranch is in there) and the Bay itself, which you can cross in a boat.

Monster Train, a deckbuilding roguelike that firmly entrenched itself as the crown prince to the kingly Slay the Spire back in 2020, was the kind of smash success you might call Champagne Big. Four years later, its successor Inkbound’s launch from Early Access was looking more like Sandwich Big.I’m not just saying that because of the mountain of lamb and eggplants I ate while meeting with developer Shiny Shoe over lunch, to feel out what the aftermath of releasing a game looks like in 2024. I mean, have I thought about that sandwich every day since? Yes. But also, the indie team talked frankly about the struggle of luring Monster Train’s audience on board for its next game.
