With the sequel to release on Nov. 15, developer Ubisoft continues to come out with more details about the new "Watch Dogs 2" game. The latest reveal lists post-launch content for the sequel's season pass.

In the announcement on its official blog, Ubisoft lists at least five expansion packs for "Watch Dogs 2," including a Day One DLC dubbed as the "Psychedelic Pack," that will get unlocked for season pass holders upon the game's release. The expansion will be followed by the "Root Access" pack, an expansion for the "Watch Dogs 2" story with the players tasked to take on the Zodiac Killer. Meanwhile, there is also the "T-Bone Content" bundle, confirmed to come out first for the PS4 on Dec. 13.

At least two of the contents included in the season pass are scheduled to come out next year. Both "Human Conditions" and "No Compromise" bundles, with story expansions, are listed with a spring 2017 release timeline.

Meanwhile, it is confirmed that the season pass content will be released on a staggered basis, coming out for PS4 players first. Should there be confirmed release dates for the packs on the Sony console, the post-launch content will go live at least 30 days later on the Xbox One and PC versions.

The season pass is unlocked as an add-on for the "Gold Edition" of the game, and it can also be purchased separately for $40.

"Watch Dogs 2" has already gone gold, and it is on track for its Nov. 15 release. However, it is revealed that the title will only come out on the PS4 and Xbox One on that day as the PC version had a slight delay. The PC title for "Watch Dogs 2" is scheduled to come out on Nov. 29 instead.

"Watch Dogs 2" is a direct sequel to the 2014 hit game. Although the sequel tackles similar hacking stories, the upcoming game has received massive improvements on its story, design, and gameplay.
