Watch Dogs creative director Jonathan Morin has revealed that Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot forced the team to showcase the game at E3 2012. Morin said that the team were reluctant to do so as they thought it was too early to show the game. Watch Dogs has been delayed on the Wii U till a later date.

“They forced us to go at E3 2012, We didn’t know what the hell those new consoles would be, so Watch Dogs really has worked on [seventh]-gen systems since the start. But we always pushed the ideas, the design, the core of Watch Dogs in such a way that we felt it would fit well with what we thought would be the future of games.

“Yves was the one who wanted us to go at that E3, even though we felt it was a bit early, and in the end I think he was right.”
