The recently released open world action adventure stealth video game, "Watch Dogs 2," now has thousands of gamers combing through the city to deal their own brand of justice. The game itself was also previously revealed to have a mission within it that features what looks to be a made up Ubisoft video game title that players must hack in order to complete their objectives.
Now, new reports have revealed that the made up science fiction space title within the game might not be fabricated after all and could be an actual game that Ubisoft has previously planned to release. In the mission called "Ubistolen," players are tasked to infiltrate Ubisoft's San Francisco office, which the developer actually molded out of their actual office, to steal an unreleased trailer for an upcoming space-themed video game. Players must find a way inside the building full of fake Ubisoft employees and personnel to hack into the company's computer systems to download the game's trailer.
A report from Kotaku, which cited several sources familiar with the goings-on at Ubisoft, revealed that the space-themed game which the mission is referring to is an actual Ubisoft game called "Pioneer." The sources also revealed that the game was scheduled to be unveiled sometime next year, but for unknown reasons, the game's development was halted. The sources were not aware of the actual reason for Ubisoft's decision, but mentioned that the game was scheduled to be retooled, and possibly released at a later date. The report also revealed that when the company decided to add the new game as an Easter Egg for "Watch Dogs 2," they were not aware yet that the game would hit a snag.
"Watch Dogs 2" was released just this week, Nov. 15, for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The PC version is scheduled to be released in two weeks on Nov. 29.
