Watch Dogs: Legion will no longer be getting its multiplayer modes next week as originally planned, with Ubisoft announcing it’s delaying all online features into next year while it concentrates its efforts on addressing the game’s various technical issues.
Ubisoft had initially intended to release Legion’s multiplayer modes – offering co-operative free-roaming and mission-doing for 2-4 players, alongside various PvP challenges – in a post-launch update on 3rd December. Unfortunately, the game’s arrival was mired by bugs, some relatively minor, others considerably more serious, and Ubisoft has now pledged to focus its efforts on squashing those before moving onto other endeavours.
“Since the launch of Watch Dogs: Legion,” the publisher wrote, “some of you continue to have technical issues preventing you from enjoying the game. The dev team is committed to fixing these issues and will not stop until everyone can experience the game as intended.”
