Developed by United Front Games in collaboration with Square Enix London Studios, Sleeping Dogs is a gritty open world cop drama set in the vibrant city of Hong Kong.
Taking the role of undercover cop Wei Shen, players are tasked with taking down one of the world's most fearsome criminal organizations from the inside - the Sun On Yee Triad.
Offering players an island packed with action, every street corner, market stall, harbor dock or city skyscraper can become an opportunity for intense shoot-outs, adrenaline--fuelled street races and intense, brutal martial arts combat. Featuring an intuitive and imaginative combat system, Sleeping Dogs empowers players to perform an extensive set of martial arts moves, single--handedly taking on numerous opponents. Players perform bone--crushing kicks and combos, vicious counters, and a cinematic set of environmental takedowns making use of countless real--world items from circular saws to phone booths, incinerators to refrigerator doors.
Sleeping Dogs will be available in North America on August 14, 2012, for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Windows PC.
