Watch Dogs’ Inventory is a Dynamic, Floating Window

We already knew protagonist Aiden Pearce’s smartphone would play a role in Watch Dogs, and now we’ve gotten to see an example of it. Ubisoft released two screenshots that show the game’s inventory. Rather than being a separate, paused menu, the inventory opens up as a floating window that represents the user interface of Aiden’s phone. He’ll be able to move, shoot, and perform other actions while the inventory is open.

In just a week, we’ll get to see further PS4 footage of Watch Dogs at PAX East. Animation Director Colin Graham was asked about any differences between the PS4 and Xbox One versions. While he couldn’t give technical details like resolution and frame rate, he says they look the same to him.

@ShaikhSehran on the technical side i cannot say, i just don't know. Sorry. To me they look the same.
