In related news, the creative director of Watch Dogs, Jonathan Morin, recently compared the game's map with that of Rockstar's GTA 5. Morin however did not mention the scale of the map but stated that the game concentrates more on density over vast map.

He also justified the large map of GTA 5 as they had the inclusion of aeroplanes, which need space to roam.
