Playing a supporting role is AidenвЂ™s now grown-up nephew Jackson, who we last saw as a kid in the first game. That level where we would have to go deep into AidenвЂ™s mind, is simply one of the best levels Ubisoft has done. Bloodline, however, masterfully delves deep into AidenвЂ™s psyche, pushing more our understanding of the man who seems hell-bent on self-destruction as equally as he is hell-bent on вЂњprotectingвЂќ his nephew Jackson.

Their appearance as side mission givers give added context and emotional impact to their ultimate fates in the campaign.ДЄiden Pearce had always been my favorite Watch Dogs character not only because he was the first protagonist, but because despite the first game having real issues, you empathize a bit with Aiden and how his guilt has led him to the path of being The Vigilante. The side missions also feature characters you will come across in the game.

What Bloodline brings to Legion, however, is a better story, one that is connected to the wider Watch Dogs universe and even wonderfully concludes Aiden PearceвЂ™s story arc. The game does play a bit more smoothly than I last remembered it and my game did not crash the whole time I was playing the Bloodline, but it is still basically the same game outside of Aiden and WrenchвЂ™s unique skills and abilities. Pedestrians still jump away from a car that is five meters away from them, NPCs still spawn in front of me, and thereвЂ™s still a lot of pop-ups. Being more story driven than the main game, Bloodline is actually more connected to the wider Watch Dogs lore than Legion ever was, making this DLC a must have for Watch Dogs fans.ДЄs expected, Bloodline borrowed its basic structure from the main game, even down to the bugs. It features the return of two legacy characters: Aiden Pearce, protagonist of Watch Dogs and Wrench, the fan-favorite anarchist from Watch Dogs 2 in an all-new story set after the events of Zero Day but before the revival of Dedsec London in the main game.

Watch Dogs: LegionвЂ™s story DLC вЂњ BloodlineвЂќ finally dropped last week.
