Watch Dogs: Legion releases later this week, and if you’re planning to hack the streets of London as the newest member of DeadSec, there’s some good news: You’ll be able to download the game ahead of its digital launch. Ubisoft has detailed the pre-load start times and the exact launch time for Watch Dogs Legion’s October 29 release.
The download size isn’t too hefty either, coming in at 40.4 GB on PC, 37 GB on Xbox One, and 33 GB on PS4. You’ll be able to start downloading the digital version from this week, with varying days per platform. On Stadia there’s naturally no need for a download. Pre-loading starts on October 26 for PC and October 27 for PS4. If you’re planning to play Watch Dogs Legion on Xbox One you can start pre-loading right now.
