Watch Dogs is definitely  one of the most anticipated games coming this holiday season on the Playstation 4.
As the game is based on similar open world concepts to games  like Saints Row and Grand Theft Auto. There is obviously going to be comparisons made between the open-world action platforms.
For example in Saints Row and GTA V, players have the opportunity to fly jets, aeroplanes, and helicopters if they want. They can travel in and out of the city over looking the amazing sky scrapers by air and the tiny little lights of cars driving along the busy motor ways beneath them.

This was one of the key features that makes these open-world games so popular and fun to play. Being able to hop on a plane and fly from one place to the next, experiencing a different part of the city within the game in your very own jet is just great.   We wanted to know if this was a feature Ubisoft has integrated into their new Watch Dogs game considering the similarities with the Open-world. Ubisoft was not giving away any extra details about this subject until today. much more details on this subject. how players would move within Watch Dogs Open-world, except for the trailers we have seen .

In an exclusive interview, Senior producer Dominic Guay explains why players will not be able to fly aeroplanes in Watch Dogs.
"Gamers will not be able to fly planes  in WATCH_DOGS. It wasn't part of our main focus to the type of game we were creating." Said Dominic Gauy.
Watch Dogs is set in Chicago and we wanted to know if this would be the only location gamers would  experience throughout the entire game.
Dominic Guay responded by  saying "Gamers will be able to drive all the vehicles in the game including motorcycles, trucks and even boats. Players will be able to explore the four corners of the city, via, land and river and beyond Chicago." Dominic Guay Said, but didn't elaborate further than that.

So now we know  players won't be able to fly aircrafts in the new Watch Dogs game, but with some of the other super cool things we can do with our trusted hacker phone. Who needs a helicopter anyway.
Stay tuned as we cover this and other new games coming soon the PS4.
