While it was already teased, we finally have more information about the coming Saints Row game, which will be a reboot, thanks to Gamescom 2021.
The cinematic trailer showed off the game’s main four characters — Eli, Nina, Kevin, and the Boss — as they take on a rival gang to get money for their start-up, which in Saints Row terms is their criminal empire.
The game is a more toned down version of the franchise, at least compared to Saints Row 3 and 4. Bryce Charles, one of the actors that plays the Boss (they’re the player character and can be customized), was on hand to give us information about the game. It’s about building yourself from the ground-up in the fictional city of Santo Ileso, which is described as one of the biggest sandboxes in the series to date. You’re tasked with also taking on the three established gangs already in power in the city.
The presentation also showed off a very small amount of gameplay, but from the brief glimpse, we can see some of the Saints Row gameplay we’ve grown accustomed to, including car chases, third-person shooting, and more.
