Watch Dogs 2 PC Gets NVIDIA GameWorks Trailer

NVIDIA just released a GameWorks trailer for Watch Dogs 2 PC, due to launch on November 29th after last week's debut on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Here's their official comment on the features implemented working alongside Ubisoft, posted on the official GeForce site.

Featuring a stylized, digital recreation of San Francisco, the game boasts plenty to see and do, and on PC its incredible amount of content will be rendered at a significantly higher level of detail, and be enhanced by NVIDIA GameWorks visual effects.

Having worked closely with Ubisoft throughout Watch Dogs 2’s development, we’ve had the opportunity to integrate HBAO+ for richer, more realistic Ambient Occlusion contact shadowing; PCSS and HFTS for vastly improved character, object and world shadowing; TXAA for improved anti-aliasing and the addition of temporal anti-aliasing; SLI for increased performance on Multi-GPU systems; Surround for immersive triple-screen gaming; and NVIDIA Ansel, an in-game tool that enables you to capture unique screenshots in Super Resolution, Stereo, 360° Virtual Reality, and 360° Stereo formats.

NVIDIA also confirmed, as per our previous report, that Watch Dogs 2 PC will be given away for free to those who buy GTX1080/GTX1070 graphics card or systems at participating retailers. You may now check out a list of retailers from the Watch Dogs 2 bundle page.

We’re incredibly happy with critics’ and players’ very positive reception of Watch Dogs 2, which should bolster support for the long-term success of the game. It is true that first-day and first-week sales for a number of big games, including Watch Dogs 2 and titles from our competitors, are comparatively lower than previous versions in previous years.

However, we expect both week-two and week-three sales to be above traditional sales patterns. There is a trend toward games, especially high-quality games, having stronger and longer ‘tails’ as favorable reviews and word of mouth spread. Watch Dogs 2 is already considered a tremendous addition to the open-world action adventure series and we’re confident that millions of players are going to love it.
