The Sleeping Dogs universe is only getting bigger and badder with the latest game from developers United Front. Triad Wars is all about Hong Kong, the criminal underground, and you creating your own game within the online only open-world strategy game.
Just because it's an online game doesn't mean it's an MMO though. While you do play against other players, it's set in an asynchronous world, meaning you're battling player data as opposed to players themselves.
Judging by the trailer above, there are tons of different ways to kill people, one guy gets speared to death by Marlin beaks.
Here's how it's described by United Front:
Set in the vibrant city of Hong Kong and Sleeping Dogs universe, Triad Wars is an online open-world action/adventure game where you experience high-octane violence and non-stop martial arts action as the #1 badass in a hard-hitting Hong Kong Cinema-styled world of crime. Forge your personal empire in the dark heart of Hong Kong and manipulate the Triad underworld as the ultimate criminal mastermind. Succeed through strategy via extortion, hacking & money laundering or muscle your way to the top with the lethal combination of guns, knives, & fists. Own the streets before they own you.
The game is currently in closed beta, you can sign up here.
