Saints Row
Just after Saints Row was announced at gamescom, we have a new breakdown of what to expect in this Saints Row with a bit of gameplay
During the main shows of gamescom, we had the tease and showing of the new Saints Row title but did not get much more than that at the time. I mean, we did also get the release date from Volition that we can play the game on February 25th 2022 on our PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, or PC when the time comes. Kind of a lot that we normally ask for when a game is announced out there. Sadly, it did not come with much in the way of gameplay or many other aspects that would be nice to have beyond it being a reboot to the Saints Row IP. That or Deep Silver was holding a few things back for us until now as we have a little bit of gameplay and look at what will be coming with this title when it comes. Just a bit odd that it did not come out at the same time as the big cinematic drop.
Anyway, here we go with a bit of the behind-the-scenes for this Saints Row and what is going into it all. Obviously, it will be taking place in the American South West with many of the streets and settings pulled from various cities in the area. Even if there are quite a bit from Las Vegas specifically here. It will also be a fully open-world again and filled with all of the weirdness in the mix of it all. All while we take on the role of the four different characters with each of their own ideas behind how it should all go do. Just with the Saints Row twists as we leave behind all that we remember from the years before now.
There is also a nice dive into the various enemies in Saints Row that we will have to face off against and some of the weapons we will use in the mix. All of which we will be able to customize quite a bit as the narrative plays out too. Have a look at the video to see a bit more to all of that, but that is about the basics that they are willing to give us for now. No matter the case, we will be Self Made in Saints Row in the short future. this is what we should all still be amped for as the tidbits flow out there to get us all back into these roles again.

Were you able to gather all of this from the original announcement for Saints Row or was it good to have it laid out like this? Do you think it will be closer to some of the grounded titles in the IP line or will it just look like that for now?
