Those who own the game on Xbox One will have to wait a little longer, with Ubisoft anticipating activation of seamless multiplayer on Microsoft’s console sometime overnight.

Here’s what features will be available to players via the in-game smartphone’s Multiplayer App:

• Invite friends to co-op or search for new co-op partners
  
• Hack into a rival hacker's world
• Find targets for Bounty Hunts or trigger a bounty on themselves

 
Ubisoft will be keeping an eye on the stability of the newly activated multiplayer features, and if everything continues to run smoothly, will deploy the second and final phase of the seamless multiplayer experience.
 
This includes:

• “Nearby bounty targets and Prime_Eight rivals will join the player’s world for them to hunt down and hack without going through the Multiplayer App in the smartphone.”
• “Players will also encounter friendly Dedsec hackers who can help them complete different Dedsec events throughout San Francisco.”
