Bloodline is a large story add-on for Watch Dogs: Legion, an action game from Ubisoft. The DLC tells the story of two characters from previous installments of the series - Aiden Pearce and Wrench.
Watch Dogs: Legion - Bloodline is a major story expansion pack for the 2020 game Watch Dogs: Legion. DLC, like the basic version of the game, was developed by Ubisoft.
Plot
The storyline of the expansion revolves around Aiden Pearce, the protagonist of the first Watch Dogs. In Bloodline, while fulfilling a lucrative job order, he goes to London in order to steal a device produced by Broca Tech which allows to control an army of robots.
Unfortunately, during the course of the robbery Pearce is surprised by the hacker Wrench, whom we met in Watch Dogs 2. After a short fight, the second of them escapes with the loot. The principal of the robbery isn't satisfied with the quality of Aiden's service and will kidnap his nephew, Jackson, to provide extra motivation to find the thief.
Mechanics
Watch Dogs: Legion - Bloodline is a classic expansion. The main attraction of the add0-on is a set of new story missions. There are also additional items and optional side quests.
During the game we don't limit ourselves to controlling Aiden. We go through some adventures as Wrench. Both heroes have very different specializations, strongly influencing the course of the game. Both characters are also added to the main game, both Watch Dogs: Legion story campaign and multiplayer mode.
Technical aspects
Bloodline is not a stand-alone expansion pack. This means that the basic version of Watch Dogs: Legion is required to play.

Watch Dogs: Legion - Bloodline is not without its issues, but series fans will find plenty to like in this expansion.
Screen Rant: 4 / 5 by Alex Santa Maria
This one small change from anonymity to recognizability makes Watch Dogs: Legion - Bloodline a vital addition. It's the best story content in the series since Watch Dogs 2's main campaign, and it effectively redeems the story of the original game by acknowledging the cognitive dissonance of Aiden Pearce's rampage through Chicago. Anyone who jumped on with the second game likely won't get a lot out of these revelations, and it's still probably not a great idea to spend 40 hours with 2014's vision of a hacker just to play this DLC, but anyone who's been with Watch Dogs since the beginning will find a lot to like here.
TheSixthAxis: 5 / 10 by Miguel Moran
Watch Dogs Legion: Bloodline tries to be a love letter to fans of the series by bringing back two iconic characters as the protagonists, but in doing so, it removes the one gameplay mechanic that made Watch Dogs: Legion so memorable. Without characters to study, befriend, and recruit, Bloodline is a more watered-down open-world experience than the base game it's tied to. Worse is the fact that it doesn't expand on the base game at all. With no new regions to explore, activities to engage in, or gear to unlock, it's a pretty barebones package overall.
