Ubisoft confirms Watch Dogs 2 for the PS4, Xbox One and PC platforms and it will be release on November 15.

New "Watch Dogs 2" details will feature a Marcus Halloway and the rest of thr DedSec group in a new trailer and the sequel will have a larger map and no towers.

Ubisoft streamed a new game trailer for "Watch Dogs 2" that features the Los Angeles based DedSec group and the main protagonist Marcus Holloway. Marus' voice-actor Ruffus Prentiss described him as a young, self-taught hacker with a "fun" personality. Marcus has a lot of labels pushed upon him in "Watch Dogs 2" due to the fact about his family history and where he came from, which is something that he is fighting against in a world dominated by ctOS 2.0.

Marcus fights for what he thinks is injustice, but he will need help from similar minded people and that is were DedSec comes as Marcus' allies in the fight. Joining him is the Wrench, a DedSec member who loves anarchy as he is an expert in demolition and engineer and some of his missions requires Marcus to blow up stuff from buildings, computer hardware etc.

The next member of DedSec is Sitara and is the only female member of the gang. She is described as playful at times, but knows when to get serious in certain situations. Sitara is a talented visual artist and she is responsible for DedSecs many visual images in their hacking activities.

The last member of the group is named Josh and he is described as a very talented, but soft spoken person. Josh only speaks when necessary and when he talks it means serious and everyone pays attention to him. He is the main coder of DedSec and is responsible for the heavy hardware side within the group, Gamerant reported.

In other news, "Watch Dogs 2" will feature a bigger map than the previous game as the map size of San Francisco will be twice the size in Chicago.

The sequel will also feature a more colorful, lighthearted and fun storyline as opposed to the more serious and dark plot. Ubisoft added that "Watch Dogs 2" will not feature a tower unlock system similar to "Assassin's Creed" and "Far Cry" as creative director Jonathan Morin confirmed that statement saying that "Watch Dogs 2" will not have towers and gamers will just have to explore each area within the game.

Morin added that "Watch Dogs 2" will have a new progression system which ties to the number of followers the player has and it will unlock new missions as they complete activities and make new discovery, Eurogamer reported.

"Watch Dogs 2" will launch on Nov. 15 for the PS4, Xbox One and PC platforms.
