New game mode: Resistance Mode
Step into a challenging new way to experience Legion’s campaign, where:
Almost all enemies are Elite and use their special gadget more often
Max ammunition is significantly reduced
Enemies detect you much faster
Albion will detect and recognize DedSec in the open world if you get too close
Albion Checkpoints will detect DedSec and trigger an Albion pursuit
Albion has trapped some Tech Points around London. Collecting “TRAPPED” Tech Points will trigger an Albion pursuit
Tech Tree economy is rebalanced, with the strongest upgrades costing more Tech Points
Albion Pursuits are more difficult, escalate faster, and trigger more often
Enemies are far quicker to call reinforcements and escalate to lethal force
Most abilities, hacks, and gadgets have significantly longer cooldowns
Tube station fast travel is disabled
Health regeneration takes longer to kick in
Explosives cannot be armed with the ‘Trap’ hack. Trigger the “Explode” hack or shoot it when an enemy walks by

The Infiltrator Spiderbot cannot execute takedowns
Most civilians start out disliking DedSec
Permadeath is always ON
Added an achievement for completing the campaign on Resistance Mode
You can find more details about Resistance Mode in our dedicated Tea Time with Bagley article.
New game mode: Invasion
The fan-favorite Invasion PvP mode is back in Watch Dogs: Legion, and with Play as Anyone it’s been upgraded to the next level.
As you know from Watch Dogs games, Invaders will attempt to complete the download on Search team members. In Watch Dogs: Legion, Invaders have access to more tools of deception, including the ability to swap to other Operatives in the world to avoid being detected. The Search team will need to use their whole arsenal of weapons, abilities, and tools in the environment, to prevent the download from finishing.
New game mode: Extraction
Another addition to TU5.5 is our third PvP mode, Extraction, Watch Dogs: Legion’s take on Capture-The Flag. A 4 player Free-For-All where you obtain crypto drives and race across the city to upload the data, while other players will try to stop you at all costs.
New crossover event: Assassin’s Creed
Two new single-player missions
Two new world missions.
Season Pass content: New High Value Character – Darcy
Abilities, Gadget and Weapons:
Hidden Blade
The iconic Assassin weapon. Improves melee and perform takedowns from any angle
Eagle Drone
Scout drone that can self-destruct and can emit a short-range EMP
Assassin Training (Passive)
Avoid detection for longer while in stealth, and take less weapon damage while sprinting
AR Disguise (Gadget)
Assume the look of a soldier with access to restricted locations. Also applies to nearby allies in multiplayer
Assassin’s Gun
A discreet Brotherhood pistol that fires a single high damage shot. Automatically reloads while holstered

Game mode updates:
Enemies Archetype
