Watch Dogs Legion - It's London baby!

RPS on the accuracy (based on a hands-on, not the trailer). Sounds encouraging.

The Canadian Embassy on the other side of Trafalgar Square! And on the right, there’s the National Portrait Gallery! So I instantly abandoned the mission I was supposed to be doing (which was, incidentally, to meet a man at Westminster Abbey) and doubled back up the street behind me. Because if that was Trafalgar Square, then surely if I went up this side street I’d be at — yes, Leicester Square! And the fountain jets in the middle shot up and down in a circle just like in real life! It even had the weird round glockenspiel left over from the now-demolished Swiss Centre. And the round-edged glass hotel building where the Centre used to be.

Then I walked, wonderingly, through Piccadilly Circus and along Regent Street, until I ran into All Souls Church and the weird, U-shaped front of Broadcasting House, where the BBC lives. Then I found Horseguards. Then, when we fast travelled via the tube, of course, to Camden, I pointed out the grubby market on the right that sells knock-off t-shirts, and the bridge over the canal (“It even has the willow tree!”), and the shops that have big fibreglass model shoes and animals over the doors, for some reason. There was even a blatant takeoff of Cyberdog, a trance and dance music-themed clothing shop where everything is neon. In real life it has two big sexy robots either side of the door; in fake-London they were big sexy robot dogs.
