With the announcement of a new standalone expansion called Gat Out of Hell, in which the player contends with Satan in the city of Hell, it seems lead writer Steve Jaros is confident he can take Saints Row to any setting and any style. The opening of Saints Row IV, for example, is a perfect send-up of 1990s action films, but you don’t have to be a fan of Armageddon or The Matrix to enjoy it. It routinely references both real-world events and popular culture for a strong comedic effect, but it is simultaneously fun even if you are unfamiliar with the source material. Over the last eight years though, Saints Row has evolved into one of the most culturally aware series in the industry. When it came out in 2006, I considered it just as another of the rash of clones the popularity of Grand Theft Auto spawned.
The game was exclusive to the Epic Games Store but is finally coming to Steam on May 22nd.I’ll admit that I haven’t played the first Saints Row game. Saints Row The Third Remastered is currently available on almost every platform including PC, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch. There’s been barely any news since, but an announcement during next month’s digital E3 event could be possible. It wasn’t officially announced during any kind of showcase but was instead confirmed by the Saints Row Twitter account which was responding to an agitated fan. In related Saints Row news, Volition is currently working on a new Saints Row game, although this was revealed at the beginning of last year. The game has players taking on the role of the leader of the Third Street Saints and tasks them with defeating rival gangs in turf wars. Unfortunately, the game was capped at 30 frames per second on consoles at the time, something that a next-gen port should likely address. Saints Row: The Third Remastered launched a year ago on May 22nd, giving players a better-looking version of the original released back in 2011.
