"ctOS Mobile has two primary ways to play with your friends on console and PC: Race and Free Ride," according to Ubisoft. "Both modes are adversarial, pitting the console/PC player against the mobile player. On the console/PC, the player must race from checkpoint to checkpoint. Every time a checkpoint is passed, more time is added back to the clock. The goal is to reach the final checkpoint before time runs out.
"On the mobile app, the player is doing everything in his power to thwart his adversary. How so? By hacking into the city via a top-down map, triggering blockers, setting off explosions and causing all kinds of mayhem. Using ctOS Mobile, the player can also attack from above via a helicopter (complete with a sniper); and he can send the local police into hot pursuit."
The ctOS Mobile is available for free download. The app does not require any in app purchases and gamer also don't need to purchase the "Watch Dogs" title to play the game. The app will work on 3G, 4G and wireless networks. "Watch Dogs" is available in stores now. Check out the trailer for Ubisoft's title in the video below.
