Square Enix released a new teaser trailer for Sleeping Dogs' Nightmare in North Point DLC. The horror themed expansion pays homage to campy films of the 80s and 90s.
The trailer begins like playing an old VHS tape on a VCR with plenty of tracking lines. The video goes on to show off a cat-like monster with glowing eyes and the ability to kidnap people and disappear into a green mist. Plus there are people fleeing in terror, Ghoulishes zombies, ghost of Triads and Jiang Shi. The Jiang Shi are Chinese vampires, creatures that usually dwells in dark places such as caves and kills living creatures by absorbing their life essence. Watch the trailer below...
The Nightmare in North Point DLC tells the story of a gang member whom the Triad tortured and killed. He returns from the dead and brings with him an army of terrible undead monsters. Sleeping Dogs' protagonist Wei Shen must defeat him and end the undead invasion.
Shen will have enhanced powers that he gained through a mystical herbal tea from an earlier mission. These powers give him the ability to battle these undead minions.
Sleeping Dogs is an open world action-adventure video game and was released on Aug. 14, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. The Nightmare in Northpoint DLC arrives just in time for Halloween on Oct. 30. The price has not been announced.
