It now appears that Ubisoft will be giving away Watch Dogs 2 to all users who have a Uplay account, even those who weren’t able to log into their accounts. Ubisoft had stated that it was aware of the login issues faced by users and that it was working to resolve the problem during the broadcast.

Ubisoft also posted a tweet through its official Ubisoft Support handle confirming that the Ubisoft Forward rewards will be given out even to those users who were not able to log in during the event. So, if you weren’t able to catch the event live or missed the promotion entirely, it is likely that you will still receive a free copy of Watch Dogs 2 anyway.

As part of the Ubisoft Forward event, the French video game company also gave fans a detailed look at Watch Dogs: Legion, the third instalment in the Watch Dogs series. The free giveaway doesn't come as surprise as Ubisoft is looking to hype up the franchise as much as possible. It is likely that the enticing offer of a free Watch Dogs 2 will prompt people who are unfamiliar with the series to consider a taste of the thrilling action-adventure video game before its highly anticipated sequel comes out in October this year.
