No Watch Dogs demo because "demos take time"

Over the past few days, Watch Dogs creative director Jonathan Morin has been deluged by anxious fans asking about a potential demo for the open-world adventure - a demo that, Morin claims, is not in development.

"Dude relax, I receive too much tweets," Morin replied to one Twitter user who had repeatedly badgered the developer for an answer. "[There is] no demo planned before release. Sorry for the wait, doing my best," he added. The next day, Morin was asked to explain this lack of a Watch Dogs demo. "Doing Demos take time, the focus is on the game," he tweeted. "You will see more footage before release. Be patient & thanks for your passion."

Watch Dogs is slated for release on May 27. It will debut on the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. A Wii U version of Watch Dogs is also in development, but we haven't heard anything on when that version will be released since Ubisoft delayed the game in February.

Monster-Munch That sucks i was hoping for a demo to try the game out and see if it is worth the money but it will be im pretty sure but still sucks.

just wait a little bit after it comes out and see how the reviews on it are

most major reviews are generally a bad idea to go by, they are ever biased (money) or just plain subjective. Of course there should be some subjective criticism but it can't just be that.

Considering the bumpy start a demo would have been a great idea to prove to everyone that it was still going well.

Why should they take time away from making the game just to make a demo that will possibly delay the game

Preferred this way. Means more time to focus on development.

It doesn't need a demo, I just want the game to be finished already.
