300 midnight openings planned for Watch Dogs at GAME

GAME has confirmed that over 300 stores will open their doors on midnight on the night of Monday May 26th for the launch of Watch Dogs.

The main launch event will take place at GAME’s Gateshead Metrocentre store which will welcome a number of Ubisoft Reflections developers and host an audience with animation director Colin Graham at 9:00pm.

A full list of participating stores can be found here.

GAME will also be including the game in its Get Gaming Quicker offer that allows customers to pre-purchase a copy from Wednesday May 21st for quick collection on the night.

Since Watch Dogs was announced at the E3 conference back in 2012, the anticipation for the launch has been huge, particularly as it’s one of the great new IPs for the next generation platforms,” GAME’s category director Charlotte Knight said.

We’re certainly not letting the Bank Holiday stand in our way of a fantastic launch. With over 300 stores opening their doors it is the place to be to get your hands on the game first.”
