Ubisoft har nu annonceret at de er på vej med en ebog tilknyttet deres kommende sandkassespil Watch Dogs. Titlen bliver //n/Dark Clouds og er inspireret af universet hvor Watch Dogs finder sted.
John Shirley, som måske er bedst kendt for at have skrevet screenplayet til The Crow samt romanen Bioshock: Rapture, er sat på projektet. Om dette skriver han:
"Working on Watch Dogs was enormously interesting to me because its world offers the convergence of cyberpunk and the edgy tech reality of our times; it all plays out with action and energy against the inner city backdrop that I thrive in" udtaler John Shirley. "With hack tech in one hand and gun in the other, Aiden Pearce is a believable fusion of hacker and action hero who deliberately slips between the cracks of society to relentlessly pursue his agenda. The novel introduces Mick Wolfe, an ex-military, who get caught in a dangerous game in Chicago's hyper connected and violent underground. Working with Thomas Geffroyd and Kevin Shortt at Ubisoft to develop the book was a rocking experience - Ubisoft is right out there on the frontier of videogame development. I couldn't ask for more inspiration".
Bogen er sat til at udkomme den 27. maj.
