Watch Dogs closed beta trial appears on Xbox One store, then disappears

Watch Dogs multiplayer could be getting a closed beta trial soon, as a test download appeared on the Xbox One store this week before disappearing.

As you can see, the 23.07GB download is labelled, 'Watch_Dogs Closed Beta,' and is marked as 'Unavailable.' It's possible this appeared prematurely, or is intended for internal testing purposed only. Either way; it seems Watch Dogs' multiplayer is being put through its paces.

It follows word that Watch Dogs' seamless multiplayer - which sees players invaded and hacked by others - can be turned off if you don't want to be bothered.

We've contacted Ubisoft for comment.

Watch Dogs is out in May.
