United Front Games has confirmed that it is working on another game set in the "Sleeping Dogs universe."

In a post on the company blog, UFG says that the recent "Triad Wars" trademark applications are for a Sleeping Dogs game, and that they're once again working with Square Enix. It will share more information sometime in 2014. It's careful not to call this a sequel, though, so that could mean a new story or even a different genre. All we know is that it's set in that fiction.

According to Square's financials, the publisher was banking on Sleeping Dogs hitting 2-2.5 million copies, but it fell short of that goal at only 1.75 million. Regardless, that's significantly closer to its goal than Tomb Raider and Hitman: Absolution reached, so Square must still see some value in the brand.

      I wonder if it will follow the example of "Rise of the Triad" and have nothing to do with the Triad.

      One of my favorite open world games, mainly because the focus was on hand to hand combat instead of guns.

      I think I'm more excited about this than I was about GTA 5.
