Download (And Keep!) Watch Dogs 2 For Free This Weekend

Ubisoft has been kindly doling out free games all summer long, though these have pretty much been in the form of free-to-play weekends.

Far Cry 5, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey and even Assassin’s Creed Origins have all had some time in the spotlight with a free-to-play weekend, but now the company has upped its game (literally) with a free-to-download-and-keep game: Watch Dogs 2.

Ubisoft is gearing up for its digital gaming event this week, Ubisoft Forward, and your free copy of Watch Dogs 2 can be claimed as part of the celebrations. Thanks, Ubi!

Over on the official Ubisoft blog, the company explains some of the events taking place, confirming that if you log into your Uplay account during the stream, you’ll be able to downloaded your free game. (Note that with it being Uplay, you’ll only be able to snag yourself a PC copy of Watch Dogs 2).
