The development team at United Front Games and publisher Square Enix have launched yet another trailer for their upcoming Sleeping Dogs, which is focused on George St-Pierre, the Mixed Martial Arts fighter who was consulted by the designers in order to make sure that the combat system is as realistic as possible.

The trailer mixes real world images of George St-Pierre with an in-game representation of him and delivers some gameplay images while the MMA fighter talks about training and his take on fighting.

The game will allow players to engage in close quarters battles but the game also offers driving and shooting as core gameplay mechanics.

The plot is linked to an undercover police officer who needs to infiltrate the Triads.

Sleeping Dogs will be out on the PlayStation 3, the Xbox 360 and the PC on August 14 for the North American market and three days later in Europe.
