Loads More Sleeping Dogs DLC Coming for Christmas

We had the Halloween Chinese Zombie downloadable content for Sleeping Dogs just a few weeks ago, and now United Front Games have announced another huge batch of story-based DLC and extra customisation content is on the way, just in time for Christmas.

The developer and Square Enix promised gamers six months of additional DLC for the title, and we have already had quite a lot so far, but there is still lots left to come. Starting in the week of November 14, five new packs of content will be released – across Xbox LIVE Arcade, PlayStation Network and Steam – so players across all formats will get a chance to extend their game time. Particularly funny will be the Square Enix pack, which provides some character customisation options based on several other heavy-hitting Square Enix games.

See all the details below:

Dragon Master Pack
