Will Watch_Dogs 3 be set in London? New Ending suggests yes!
Watch_Dogs 3 set in London? Updated files in Watch_Dogs 2 point to a possible new location in the franchise and we could all be sipping tea with the Queen in the next entry.
With the recent update 1.1 to Watch_Dogs 2 a number of additions have arrived, including a new ending which seemingly teases a new location for the next entry in the Watch_Dogs franchise.
Fans have managed to grab a set of co-ordinates from the new ending which when entered into Google Maps provides us with an address in Brixton, London.

This is not the first time Ubisoft have been known to tease locations about their titles in games, previously Assassin's Creed Black Flag pointed towards a French Revolution setting to tease the next installment Assassin's Creed Unity. Plus Watch_Dogs 2 itself featured a tease for an upcoming game by featuring a "leaked" video in the game. Could the next entry in the Watch_Dogs franchise head to London? It's a possibility, despite slow sales with WD2 the title has been a critically acclaimed title and has proven it can reinvent the franchise by improving on the original in every way possible. It's almost a certainty we'll have a Watch_Dogs 3 but whether or not it's heading to London is anyone's guess though it would be nice to see an open world game tackle modern London and I believe it'd be a nice setting for one (whether or not Grand Thefft Auto beats them to the punch is anyone's guess!).

Transcript
Man 1: How much of this is hyperbole? Has it really gone global?
Man 2: There are new DedSec cells popping up everywhere. The Middle East, South America, Europe. And not just them. We can't even keep up with all the new hacktivist groups.
Man 1: Alright. Make the call.
Man 2: You Sure?
Man 1: Do it.
The lastest patch also brought with a number of new areas which may be eventually used in an upcoming DLC pack (or as free content), one particular area sees a brand new Yacht and a "Hobo Village" as well as some brand new dance moves, including one particular set of moves from that "Fresh Prince of Bel Air" fans will be happy with ;)
