Overview
Description

Set in 1526 Imperial China, Shao Jun returns from Europe after training with Ezio Auditore to exact vengeance on the Eight Tigers, a powerful Templar cabal. The side‑scrolling platformer takes her through Macau, Nan'an, the Forbidden City and the Great Wall as she dismantles the enemy one by one. Utilizing Unreal Engine 3, the game blends precise stealth, fluid combat and historical storytelling, delivering a concise single‑player experience that expands the Assassin's Creed universe while honoring its rich lore.

Set on the eve of Chinese New Year, cultists rise in Hong Kong seeking to cleanse the city before an imagined apocalypse. As an HKPD officer, you must sabotage their plot across six new missions that continue the original Sleeping Dogs story. This single‑player expansion adds a fresh narrative, new combat encounters, and a festive backdrop while retaining the series' open‑world adventure and action gameplay.
