United Front Games has begun detailing Triad Wars, the studio's follow-up to Sleeping Dogs and set in the same world, which was revealed by trademark filing last year. Using Sleeping Dogs as a foundation, Triad Wars is an online open-world action game.
"Your goal is to rise to power as a criminal kingpin of the Triad underworld. As an Enforcer and mastermind of your criminal enterprise, it's up to you to construct an empire the likes of which your enemies would never dare to mess with," United Front Community Manager James Baldwin describes on the game's site.
The PC game will launch in "early 2015." Using the ubiquitous community feedback model to steer development of the game, interested gangsters can sign up for the closed beta now. It essentially looks like Sleeping Dogs Online, which isn't a bad thing.
