Square Enix has announced that all of Sleeping Dogs' pre-order bonuses are now available to everyone — for a price, of course. However, that's not the big news. In addition to that announcement, Square Enix is also adding a "Square Enix Character Pack" that will let players use character skins from its other franchises in Sleeping Dogs.
The game's protagonist, Wei Shen, will be able to don a bald wig and suit up just like Agent 47 from the Hitman franchise, or wear Adam Jensen's augmented armor in Deus Ex: Human Revolution, or be Rico Rodriguez from the Just Cause series. Each of these costumes will include its own buff to Shen's stats, as well as their own signature weapon.

Just to whet your appetite, here's what Wei Shen looks like as Adam Jensen:
All the DLCs mentioned above can now be downloaded over on Xbox LIVE or on the PSN once their stores have updated.
Are you buying any of the costume packs or will it be single-player DLC for you? I must admit, having characters from other games really is a neat idea…even if they're just skins and not the characters themselves, no?
