We don’t typically cover video games here at Cityonfire.com but publisher Square-Enix has gone out of their way to hire some high-profile Asian talent as voice actors in their new game, titled Sleeping Dogs.

In this open world action title, you play as an undercover cop working to rid the streets of Hong Kong of organized crime. Naturally, this involves going deep undercover in the Triad.

Fans of Asian cinema can look forward to hearing several familiar voices among the cast. In the lead role is Korean actor Will Yun Yee, who previously starred in Hollywood films like Die Another Day and the upcoming Total Recall remake.

Also keep your ears peeled for Edison Chen (Infernal Affairs II); James Hong (Big Trouble in Little China); Tzi Ma (Rush Hour); Parry Shen (Better Luck Tomorrow); Steph Song (War); Terence Yin (New Police Story); and Jerry Ying (The Girl From the Naked Eye).

Sleeping Dogs hits retail on August 14th, 2012 for the Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. Click here to order.
