Sleeping Dogs DLC To Add More Cops And Racing Missions

Square Enix and United Front Games have announced DLC plans for the open-world game Sleeping Dogs. Next month's DLC includes additional street-racing and cop missions, as well as a little free content for the fans.

Here's a look at what you can expect, straight from Square. Once you've processed all of these bullet points, take a look at the trailer to see some of this stuff in action.

  • Adrenaline-fueled street racing across the island of Hong Kong in the Street Racer Pack 
  • Twenty new cop missions unfold on the streets of Hong Kong via the SWAT Pack 
  • The Tactical Soldier Pack empowers players with the game’s most powerful weapon and armor 
  • The Community Gift Pack – free, tailor-made content from United Front Games 
  • Sleeping Dogs’ first story-driven game extension: details to be revealed at a special panel at New York Comic Con Panel on October 14

There's no word on pricing or specific release dates, so you'll have to be a little patient. The game didn't blow us away, but post-launch DLC is always welcome.

  • what was the review for this game? anyone?

    edit: nvm just saw the link...meh.
  • Good job, Square Enix!

  • Does this mean we get to see more of the horny street racer chick?

  • IMO, this game was okay. The missions weren't exhilarating, (Except for the final mission that you had to escape the building) the characters weren't interesting, and it was way too short for an open world game. At least the environmental attacks were satisfying.

  • Fak! I just traded it in to get Borderlands 2.

  • Well seeing as its in peoples nature to always have their expectations so high,I actually went into this experience not expecting much and left with a surprisingly satisfied opinion of the game.If you played the last 2 True Crime games,you will be able to see the overall improvements this game has made.I personally welcome another entry to this series.

  • Should be pretty good I would like it more if they bundled all the DLC into one pack.

  • Staff

    I never have cared for racing missions in open-world game, but would be all for story DLC. I suppose I should finish the main game first, though.

  • I'm still on the fence about Sleeping Dogs. Maybe after BL2

  • cool.

  • At least the SWAT pack sounds like it'll be worth the money.

  • This game was a lot of fun. To 100% the game, completing all missions, races, and finding all collectibles (which actually enhanced your character), it took me 41 hours to complete. And that was without any sort of strategy guide at all.

    Now, if you are only into playing through the main story line, you will still get 10 - 15 hours of gameplay; and in my opinion the story was great. The voice acting, characters, and set-piece moments (especially towards the end) were terrific.

    As for the DLC, I will definitely pick it up when it's released.

  • Just finished this game last night after 20 and a half hours and having it for a month. So yeah, I could use some DLC.

  • yea i really need to get some money so i can buy this game. lol. broke as a joke

  • Finished this game last night, the combat and the free running was my favorite part of this game, just non stop fun. I'm worried gta5 won't be as good as Sleeping Dogs on the fighting and character movement department, it's like going back to BFBC2 after playing BF3 with it's vaulting mechanic, I felt slow and clunky.

  • Sounds good, I still gotta get one more Triad level (not a big fan of street racing and my only other options are either replaying story missions or grinding the bonus triad events).

    Everything except the new street racing pack has piqued my interest and convinced me to keep the game installed on my computer.

  • All that matters: "-Sleeping Dogs’ first story-driven game extension"

  • Nice. Wish that games would just let us save our time and money and GIVE US THE DARN DLC IN THE GAME THE 1ST TIME!!! But the, I digress.

  • All for this. Loving this game.

  • Glad to see support for this game. This is my GTA.
