They also confirmed that the leaked editions of the game are indeed true. No word on whether they will hit stateside, but here are the details on the editions.

• The Dedsec Edition. Available at select UK retailers, it will include a mixture of physical and digital content. Physical content includes a figurine of protagonist Aiden Pearce, a collector’s box, a Watch Dogs art book with illustrations and artwork that inspired the game, the soundtrack, a Watch Dogs map of Chicago, four collectible cards and three badges. Digital content includes three single-player missions with “almost 60 minutes of additional gameplay.” The Palace Pack mission centers on a police raid in the luxury palace of an internet mogul. The Signature Shot mission involves a biometrics weapon smuggled into Chicago. The Breakthrough Pack focuses on driving through Chicago to collect names of those attending a secret meeting.
• The Vigilante Edition. Available at GAME stores in the U.K. and GameStop in Ireland, physical content includes a collector’s box, Aiden Pearce’s cap and mask and the Watch Dogs soundtrack. Digital content includes the Palace Pack, which is also included in the Dedsec Edition.
