Watch Dogs 2 is getting more free and paid DLC, and we now know when to expect these new additions. Ubisoft announced its DLC plans for Watch Dogs 2 from now until June, including its Showdown multiplayer mode, which will be a free addition for all players.
For single-player story content, the big DLC is titled No Compromise. This DLC sees protagonist Marcus going head-to-head with the Russian mob. The DLC will also include two new non-lethal weapons, a new Dedsec Operation, six time trial races and the addition of police, fireman and paramedic outfits and vehicles. Both the outfits and vehicles will include unique abilities and behaviors as well.
No Compromise will come to PS4 on April 18, with an Xbox One and PC release date scheduled for May 18.
If you just want in on the freebies, an update on April 17 for all systems will include the new Showdown multiplayer game mode, motocross, eKart and drone races playable in multiplayer, new clothing options, a paintball gun, and an armored truck feature that can be played either in single-player or co-op.
Showdown is a new game mode where two teams of players compete in the ultimate Watch Dogs competition. Ubisoft says players will need to use all of the skill learned from playing the single-player campaign, such as dynamic hacking, shooting, driving and puzzle-solving, to come out victorious.
In May, another free update is planned that will include seamless pvp support for the armored truck feature, a new pvp event, and improvements to the leaderboard, bounty hunter missions, and everything else.
Looking even further, Ubisoft has also announced that a 4-player co-op will be coming in June, along with additional fixes and tweaks. No release dates are planned just yet for the May and June content.
No Compromise is included in the Watch Dogs 2 Season Pass, or can be purchased separately.
