Watch Dogs: Legion Review Summary

FairCritic Consensus

Play As Anyone

The squad formed throughout the game provide a fun twist on the typical Open World formula

Repetitive Missions

Many critics noted that missions begin to feel too same-y as you get deeper into the game

Narrative Cohesion

Some critics felt that the overall story never really came together

Watch Dogs: Legion's play as anyone mechanic succeeds as more than just a gimmick, but the rest of the game will likely leave you wanting more.

Watch Dogs: Legion's bold use of roguelike mechanics in an open-world action game pay off in interesting ways, making this visit to near-future London feel more varied than the previous two games.

Legion's near-future London is almost too close for comfort, though the game it hosts is a characterless slog.

Legion royally shakes up Watch Dogs' open-world template with a Play as Anyone mechanic that just about outweighs any headaches left by its rough edges.

Metro GameCentral

A disappointingly tame vision of a near future dystopia, that represents a perfectly competent use of the Ubisoft formula but falters in its attempts to add anything new to it.

Legion offers a refreshing and fun change-up to the Watch Dogs formula that succeeds in letting players forge their own path like never before

Watch Dogs: Legion struggles with tone at times, but its empowering message about unity and justice still shines in a game that is as absurd as it is impactful.
