Sleeping Dogs has got a lot of people pretty excited, especially fans of the now retired True Crime series. But Square Enix and United Front Games apparently wanted to take the game's combat to the next level, as they brought in UFC champion Georges St.-Pierre to go "hands-on" and make the combat all the more realistic.

The developers say in the video that the fighting styles you'll utilize in the game, which will be heavy on hand-to-hand combat, will closely mirror St.-Pierre's real-life style. So expect to be busting in some heads when the game drops in a few weeks on August 14.
