Sleeping Dogs: Year of the Snake Add-On ab sofort erhältlich

Soeben hat das Chinesische Neujahr begonnen, das Jahr der Schlange… Für Sleeping Dogs ist ab sofort ein neues Download-Paket erhältlich, Year of the Snake. Darin kämpft Wei Shen, der gerade erst zum Hong Kong Police Department zurückgekehrt ist, gegen den dunklen Schlangen-Kult, der alles zerstören will.

Available for download today, the Year of The Snake add-on pack extends the story of Sleeping Dogs, with a series of all-new, action-packed police missions set immediately after the main game. The Year of the Snake features four new Achievements/Trophies and will be available for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and Windows PC, priced at 560 MSP / $6.99.

The Year of the Snake sees Wei Shen’s story continue as he rejoins the ranks of the Hong Kong Police Department, only to be caught in chaos. A vicious doomsday cult is taking root in the back streets of Hong Kong… the Cult of the Snake. Hell-bent on cleansing the city of its evils, they cannot be negotiated with as they pursue a murderous path to their righteous salvation.
Wei must enter a race against the clock in an explosive countdown to midnight and bring the cultists to justice before the arrival of Judgement Day. With an arsenal of weapons – including a tear gas launcher and an electroshock pistol – new outfits and abilities, Wei aims to earn back his honor with the HKPD by sabotaging the cultists’ plot to bomb, terrorize and subdue the citizens of Hong Kong.
Through several missions and optional activities, Wei will track down the Cult of the Snake’s leader and personally show him that the world is not about to end for anyone but him and his followers.

About Sleeping Dogs
