If you want a free game, served alongside a broadcast of new game releases, then all you need to do is tune into Ubisoft Forward this week.
Watch Dogs 2 will be free for people who log in through Uplay, Ubisoft's obnoxious version of Steam which essentially lets you play its games online, while the Ubisoft Forward stream takes place.
This means it will only be available to PC users who have access to Uplay.
In order to claim it, you just need to watch the live stream at a certain time, where you will then be instructed on how to go about claiming your free game.
Ubisoft revealed a line-up of games that will be revealed during the event, which you can check out in the video below.
Alongside the video, Ubisoft has also announced that there are still many "surprises" to come in the showcase. We can hopefully assume there will be some AAA titles coming later this year will be shown in the broadcast.
How to watch Ubisoft Forward and claim Watch Dogs 2 for free
Ubisoft Forward is a summer celebration of Ubisoft’s upcoming lineup of games and content.
The event will stream live on ubisoft.com/Forward on July 12 at 8pm UK time.
There will also be a post-show segment featuring a deep dive into Assassin’s Creed Valhalla gameplay, as well as a Hyper Scape match showcase designed to offer players an insight into Ubisoft’s new battle royale FPS.
A blog post explains how to claim your free copy of Watch Dogs 2 this Sunday. “Don’t forget to log in with your Uplay account anytime after Trackmania and before the end of the main show to claim a free copy of Watch Dogs 2 on PC, and to get a chance to answer trivia questions and win some rewards for a variety of Ubisoft titles,” the post reads.
