Halverwege de maand november zou Watch_Dogs 2 verschijnen voor de PC, Xbox One en PlayStation 4. Er is echter een kink in de kabel gekomen voor de PC gamers: het spel zal voor dit platform twee weken later verschijnen. Na de aankondiging van Red Dead Redemption 2 wederom dus slecht nieuws voor het platform.
Door de vertraging zal het spel dus op 29 november verschijnen. Mocht je je pc van een upgrade moeten voorzien na het waarnemen van onderstaande specificaties, dan heb je daar dus iets langer de tijd voor!

- Advanced keyboard support – Keyboard hotkeys for every menu and app for faster access. Additionally, all hotkeys can be remapped.
- Mouse-centric UI – Any UI screen, menus or smartphone app supports full mouse interaction, so the player can finish any UI task with the mouse only. Everything is clickable and has appropriate button states.
- Toggle/Hold modes for different controls (aim, sprint, walk, inventory, etc.)
Driving: Driving has been adapted to suit the keyboard controls, with adjustable steering sensitivity. Same goes for driving camera sensitivity and auto-centering camera behavior.
