'Watch Dogs 2' release date, plot news: hacker replaces Aiden Pearce as main character

The trailer for "Watch Dogs 2" has just been released, and fans are getting hyped over the new open world features and attractions shown in the trailer that gamers will soon be able to enjoy once the title is officially released.

In "Watch Dogs 2," players bid goodbye to "Watch Dogs" protagonist Aiden Pearce as they are introduced to the new "Watch Dogs 2" hacker, Marcus Holloway. Holloway is a self-taught programmer and social engineer that turned into a hacker.

He then becomes the newest recruit to the DedSec hacker group, an organization that aims to take down the advanced surveillance system dubbed the ctOS 2.0.

The new "Watch Dogs 2" trailer has shown fans that the "Watch Dogs" sequel is set in San Francisco, Silicon Valley, Marin County, and Oakland.

The trailer has also shown the new protagonist flying his drone all over the city, while he explains how San Francisco is filled with corrupt corporations that earn money by taking advantage of technology. Because of this, Holloway intends to restore balance to the city by hacking through systems and infiltrating enemy lines to take down the ctOS 2.0.

The new "Watch Dogs" sequel will allow its players to explore the open world set in San Francisco and Oakland by using several vehicles including ports cars, speedboats, sailboats, dirt bikes, jeeps, and quads.

Furthermore, players of "Watch Dogs 2" will be able to take down enemies using various hackable weapons, especially since the Bay Area is filled with hackable technology that can cause some serious damage to your enemies in the game.

The "Watch Dogs" sequel — "Watch Dogs 2" — will be launched for the PC on Nov. 29. The game is also expected to be officially released for both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles on November 15, 2016.

Since the game's official launch is still a month away, players can expect more news about "Watch Dogs 2" to be released soon.
