Watch Dogs Legion's dystopian post-Brexit London

In Ubisoft's forthcoming game, London has become a surveillance state run by authoritarian populists - and its citizens must come together to fight back

The virtual London of Watch Dogs Legion, the forthcoming sci-fi open world adventure by Ubisoft Montreal, is sometimes uncanny in its accuracy.

For instance, while evading the police, and the private military forces working alongside them in the game's dystopian future, I was able to use my knowledge of the layout of the real world's Broadcasting House, headquarters of the BBC, to duck down a side street and avoid a drone that had been dogging me since Trafalgar Square.
