And thus the origins of The Saints begin.Įasy enough to follow, right? I thought so at first, but as the story kept going, things kind of just didn’t make sense. Down on money, and needing to pay rent, the group decides that they should create their own gang and make their own rules. This is where your fellow roommates, Kevin, Neenah, and Eli all come together as they too soon find themselves in a similar situation booted from their own faction. To cut the story short, you eventually find yourself moving up the ranks, only for you to eventually be fired over an incident involving a heist from an opposing faction. We now find ourselves as a new recruit in the Marshall Defense Industries, a private military who is tasked with catching criminals. Betrayal, being buried alive, but by who? Cue the few months’ early title screen. However, things soon quickly escalate as the Boss finds themselves in a bit of a situation.

A satire take, which fans of the series are all too familiar with. Regardless of how you look, what ensues is perhaps some of the cringiest lines of dialogue as your character talks into their phone as if they’re in some sort of TikTok stream. It is here where we are introduced to you, the Boss, a custom made character. We aren’t sure what that is, but there’s a big party going on. Well, coincidentally he just so happened to arrive during the Saints’ biggest moment. He has come to see the Boss (you) in hopes of striking some sort of partnership. The game kicks things off with a tired looking businessman arriving at the Saints’ headquarters. Well, I’m here to tell you that they don’t look or play that part very well. An exciting thought, though once that trailer played, many were mixed as the characters didn’t exactly look like they could play the part of a notorious gangster. So the answer? Reboot the series and return to its gangster roots. That’s not to say that fans didn’t enjoy what the games were offering, but from a development viewpoint, it was becoming increasingly harder to “top” the previous games, especially since one went into literal Hell. Despite the mostly positive reception from both critics, and fans, and profitable sales, there’s no denying that by the time Saints Row had reached its fourth iteration, the series had long moved past what many had loved with the originals. One of the big goals with this reboot was that Volition wanted to make a more “grounded” experience. It’s All About Family, Except When It’s Not Read on for our Saints Row review to understand what we mean. While each iteration of the franchise got crazier and wackier with each release, developer Volition decided to pull the series back, reboot it with “Saints Row.” The big question here is: was it worth the wait? That’s a rather complicated question. It’s close to a decade since a full-fledged Saints Row graced a gaming platform, with the latest Saints Row project being Gat Out of Hell, which was a standalone expansion for Saints Row 4.
