Sleeping Dogs, the highly anticipated open world cop drama, will have a "stunning set of PC-specific features" to enhance your gameplay experience, according to developer United Front Games.

The PC version, which will arrive on the same day as the console release, includes "an array of graphical features" that will enhance the graphics. Here's some of the graphical enhancements, hardware optimizations, and support Sleeping Dogs will offer PC gamers:

The high-resolution texture pack updates the game to a new level, bringing eye-watering detail and crisp clear rendering to everything from city skyscrapers to crumbling ancient temples. Another layer of depth is added for gamers running at higher resolutions using increased small object detail to render smaller items of the world from a far greater distance to give an incredible sense of scale and detail. In-game shadows receive a significant upgrade with support for high-resolution shadow textures, high quality shadow filters and support for Screen Space Ambient Occlusion. Sleeping Dogs features performance enhancements for both dual and quad core PC setups, enhanced performance for Nvidia SLI and AMD Crossfire, support for keyboard and mouse setup (including key mapping) and optimizations for both 3D and multi monitors on both AMD and Nvidia hardware.

In addition to all of these upgraded features, those who pre-order the game on steam will get access to eight new items in the Team Fortress 2 Triad Pack. This includes items for every class and, well, hats. Swag and tattoos will also be available to fit right in on the new battlefield: a King of the Hill map inspired by Sleeping Dogs' means streets of Hong Kong.
