Use hacking as a weapon in the massive & dynamic open world of Watch Dogs 2.

In 2016, ctOS 2.0, an advanced operating system networking city infrastructure, was implemented in several US cities to create a safer, more efficient metropolis.

Play as Marcus Holloway, a brilliant young hacker living in the birthplace of the tech revolution, the San Francisco Bay Area. Team up with Dedsec, a notorious group of hackers, and expose the hidden dangers of ctOS 2.0, which, in the hands of corrupt corporations, is being wrongfully used to monitor and manipulate citizens on a massive scale.

With the power of hacking and Dedsec by your side, launch the Hack of the Century, take down ctOS 2.0 and give freedom back to whom it belongs: the people.

This is Ubisoft's biggest content addition yet, adding more than five hours of gameplay with three brand new DedSec operations (Automata, Bad Medicine, and Caustic Progress), and an Elite Co-op challenge with endless replayability for hardcore hackers.

These operations fit snugly into the middle of the main story where DedSec has upped its game and is looking to tackle more hacktivist issues. They’re picking targets that will help them not only gain followers and positive press, but also to fight back against abusive technology. With that said, you will need to have met a couple of the key players in your game before you can dive into these.

Human Conditions will primarily put you up against several corporations and their high-tech security as well as the Bratva (Russian Mafia).

"In Human Conditions, we wanted to build and expand upon what made Watch Dogs 2 such a great game with many new gameplay opportunities that players can experiment with. Our team had a lot of fun expanding on a variety of well-established mechanics like drone navigation, net hack or VR puzzles, and really bringing them to the next level! We don’t want to spoil too much, but you can expect a lot of dynamic and action-packed missions!'

The Elite Co-op challenge is a brand new harder mission designed to be a lot more challenging than the one in the base game. In this new challenge, DedSec is trying to learn more about, and stop, a new group of hackers called Hooks. They are making deals with criminal groups all across the bay, and they are packing a punch!

Unlike regular co-op missions, they take place in much larger parts of the world, blurring the lines between the open world and the mission area. They also combine multiple objectives spread throughout several zones, bringing more than 10 new mission objective combinations for these areas, and more than 30 new locations!

They will also include the new enemy archetype, the Jammer, who wears a new device that deactivates all hackable objects and hacking opportunities in a limited range around him. When there is a Jammer around, you really need to quickly adapt and change your strategy. Of course, Marcus has different ways to counter the Jammer, but you'll have to discover them by yourself!

They are compatible with our Guest mode, which allow the DLC owner to invite a non DLC owner to join Elite missions (and mayhem) for free.

Human Conditions adds and updates tons of new locations within it for our players to discover. You will be able to find new interiors, like tech companies and corporate HQs, but also revamped and updated areas from the main game like a new medical mobile clinic, a homeless camp, or a massive yacht (named Tachanka) in the middle of the bay! There is definitely a lot of new locations to explore.

All of the new locations will be accessible to all players through the title update as to not split the Watch_Dogs 2 community by tying them to the DLC

Human Conditions, the second DLC for Watch Dogs 2, will be released for PS4 on February 21, 2017, and March 23 for Xbox One and PC.
