Watch Dogs City Hotspots locations guide

The Wards 

Deadman’s Corner

This is found on the side of the building with the Cash For Gold sign, in the northwest corner of The Wards.

Shotgun Man

This park is on the west side of The Wards. Look for the Hotspot as you enter the park from the northwest corner.

The Murder Market

You can find this Hotspot at the west side of The Wards. You’ll know you’re close when you see an energy drink machine.

John A. Walsh Public School

This school is located at the southwest portion of The Wards. Look for the arch-shaped entrances to find the Hotspot.

Stockyards

To reach the Stockyards, travel to the south side of The Wards and look for some graffiti that says, “FAKE”.

Aiello’s Bakery

This check-in spot is also on the south side of The Wards. It is also close to some graffiti.

Burned Down Factory

The factory might be burned down, but there are still landmarks to help identify this Hotspot. Look for the worn out “TIRE SHOP” sign.

Big Jim’s Colosimo’s Cafe

Found in the central part of The Wards, this Hotspot is identifiable by the nearby ATM.

V Alley

You can easily find this Hotspot due to the house’s bay windows.

Murder Castle

Despite its name, there’s no castle at this Hotspot. Instead, it’s under an overpass.

Home of Lloyd Pinkerton

This is another Hotspot found at a poorly maintained building in The Wards. Look for graffiti and a couple “a-ok” symbols nearby.

Rossi-Fremont

If you haven’t visited Rossi-Fremont in The Wards by now, you will as the story progresses. This Hotspot is right outside the entrance to the complex.

Hawthorne Hotel

It’s hard to find an actual hotel here. Your best bet is to look out for the red “Opening Hours” sign.

Hit on Johnny Torrio

This Hotspot is as easy to find as the brick building it’s attached to. This can be found at the east end of the Wards.
