The DLC is also said to feature two new story missions, and these appear to take place in typical Assassin's Creed locales like ancient tombs as well as advanced vaults. The new playable character, Darcy, seems to embrace all of the Assassin Brotherhood's iconography as she sprints across rooftops wearing a white hood and hidden blade.

In October 2020, Ubisoft announced that an Assassin's Creed crossover DLC for Watch Dogs: Legionwill add a new playable character, Darcy, who belongs to the fabled Assassin order. Garneau takes a trip to Chicago, the setting of Watch Dogs, midway through Black Flag which sets up Pierce's mission to take him down.
Fans who played Assassin's Creed: Black Flag, released the year prior, quickly recognized Garneau as the CCO of Abstergo Entertainment, the modern-day Templars hellbent on taking over the world and destroying the Assassin Brotherhood. The first Watch Dogs game, released back in 2014, features a mission in which protagonist Aiden Pierce is tasked with hunting down a man named Olivier Garneau. There have been a number of subtle references which form connections between Assassin's Creed and Watch Dogs, even though the two series are officially set in their own distinct universes. Assassin's Creed's near-future plot, which acts as a backdrop to the franchise's historical stories, makes the connection with Watch Dogs possible. Both open-world action series have been great successes for publisher Ubisoft, with Assassin's Creed tackling historical settings and events while Watch Dogs focuses on a near-future world ruled by smartphones and social media. Two of Ubisoft's biggest franchises will soon collide, with a sneaky Assassin's Creedcharacter entering Watch Dogs: Legion's sci-fi version of London. UPDATE 8/17 5:50 EDT: Watch Dogs: Legion live producer Lathiesshe Thillainathan has confirmed that the crossover is fan service and is not considered canon.
