Well, here’s a crossover we didn’t see coming. Valve have announced today that they’ve gotten together with the crew behind Sleeping Dogs to bring a new map to Team Fortress 2, along with a new ‘Triad Pack’. The map is called ‘Kong King’, and will be the game’s first city-themed map. Based in the streets of China, it has also had input from community member Valentin Levillain. The King of the Hill map will be available to all Team Fortress 2 players on Steam. The Team Fortress 2 ‘Triad Pack’, on the other hand, is a Steam exclusive pre-order bonus for Sleeping Dogs. The ‘Triad Pack’ will reward Team Fortress players with 8 all new items and weapons, which tie in with the Sleeping Dogs theme. The 8 items are:

• The Neon Annihilator weapon
