When you’re ready to get into the Beta just be aware it will take some preparation. This is a decent sized download, on the Xbox One the beta weighs in at around 11GB.

Watch Dogs 2 received impressive critical scores since its launch and is considered by many to be better than the first game. Sadly, few have actually chosen to play it and with no playable demo out for it there’s little incentive for players to try out the game.  Well, today that predicament ends.  Ubisoft has just announced that they will be offering a free trial version of Watch Dogs 2 for PS4 and Xbox One players!

The trial version of the game is fully playable with the caviat that players have a three-hour time limit.  Sadly you can’t accumulate achievements or trophies in the trial game, but Ubisoft says that players who upgrade to the full version on Xbox One will unlock all of their earned trophies after upgrading their demo version to a full version.

The trial client is available starting today on the PS4 and January 24th on Xbox One.  There has been no announcement about a PC version. Since the entire game client is included in the trial it can be a pretty hefty download, weighing in at around 28GB.

Watch Dogs 2 is out now on PC, Xbox One and PS4.

The original Splatoon came out of nowhere and easily became my favorite console online multiplayer game in quite a while. I loved everything about it from the art style to the gameplay. The fact that Nintendo continued to support the game with free content releases after it launched kept its community playing for a long time!

Last night at the Nintendo Switch live presentation, Splatoon 2 was announced!

Nintendo promises that just like with the first game, new content and special in-game events will be offered post-launch!

Splatoon 2 is coming Summer 2017 exclusively on the Nintendo Switch.
