The legendary open-world action game set in Hong Kong's criminal underworld is coming back. A community-driven project to restore and revive Triad Wars — the game that was shut down too soon.

Bringing Hong Kong's
Underworld Back to Life

Triad Wars was a free-to-play online open-world action game by United Front Games and Square Enix — a spin-off of the acclaimed Sleeping Dogs. Set in a neon-lit, fictionalized Hong Kong, players built criminal empires, ran rackets, and raided rival Triads.

The game was shut down on January 20, 2016, never leaving beta. Now, nedanels is working on restoring it from the ground up — reverse-engineering the server, rebuilding the online infrastructure, and bringing this lost gem back for everyone to experience.

This is an unofficial, non-commercial fan project. We are not affiliated with Square Enix or the original United Front Games. Our goal is preservation and love for a game that deserved more.
