Rockstar Games今天宣布，NDS上的第一款《横行霸道》系列作品，《横行霸道：唐人街战争（Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars）》，将于明年3月17日在北美发售，3月20日登陆欧洲。

本作由Rockstar英国利兹工作室开发，触控笔在游戏中的广泛应用将是一大卖点所在。另外，尽管使用的是带有卡通风格的过场画面，但游戏中依然有大量限制级内容出现，抢车、杀人乃至毒品交易的要素依然健在，被定为成人级恐怕是在所难免。

本作目前对外公布过的官方情报比较有限，不过包括英国Edge杂志和任天堂官方杂志Nintendo Power在内的许多媒体都对游戏给予了高度评价。所以明年春天的这款NDS上为数不多的限制游戏还是相当值得期待的。
