If this game is anything like the previous installments, we can almost guarantee a more intense horror factor that will keep players on the edge of their seats and make them question the things around them.<br \/><br \/><\/span><\/li>\r\n<li><b>Watchdogs: Legion (Oct. 29) &#8211;<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Set in London, everything within the watchdog\u2019s realm is being monitored by an omniscient surveillance state; the military has its stronghold on the city and crime is at an all time high.
