Developer reveals that Watch Dogs began as a "racing game"

Anyone who has watched the gameplay demos Watch Dogs may not wait for this: the game development team worked initially as a racing game.

The president of Ubisoft North America, Laurent Detoc, the information revealed in an interview with IGN. "They were working on a mechanical racing game, developing something. We had the license for the game Driver.

  This makes a year. So we thought: 'No, this is not the path we want for a racing game' then resumed and canceled everything. Watch Dogs did not begin as Watch Dogs, began as another game, "said Detoc.

The game Watch Dogs was postponed for the second quarter of 2014, frustrating many expectations, especially buyers of this generation of consoles.

  For many, the game had the potential to be the best game in the debut of PS4 and Xbox One market
