Are you ready to kickstart your life of crime and build your empire? The streets of Santo Illeso await you in the brand-new Saints Row, released today! As your backup gang, we’ve compiled everything you need to know about Saints Row, including the official PC system specifications and our top PCs to play.
The Gameplay
Become your own boss and form The Saints. As a self-made criminal and gang boss, climb, fight, shoot, and explode your way to become the number one crime boss in Santo Illeso. It’s up to you how you rise to the top and your decisions will impact the future of The Saints.
The rest of The Saints and your confidants are Neenah, the best getaway driver there is, Eli, a strategic mastermind, and Kevin, who does just about everything else! An arsenal of classic and quite crazy weaponry along with a multitude of fully customisable vehicles are at your fingertips to help you battle for control of the city.
(No, you haven’t drunk a gallon of Saints Flow, that is a guitar gun…)
You won’t be the only one clawing for success and the number one spot. Rival gangs will do anything to stop your success.
The other gangs in Santo Illeso are:
- Los Panteros led by Sergio
- The Idols led by the OLEDs
- Marshall
Santo Illeso
The vast open world of Santo Illeso is waiting for you to infiltrate and enter its ranks. Inspired by the American Southwest, explore the city streets and rugged deserts that are full of opportunities for a self-made crime boss, like yourself.
Be Your True Self
The Saints Row franchise is renowned for its vast character customisation. That doesn’t change in this brand-new instalment. In fact, it now offers much more!
Not only can you create and customise your true self, but also the other members of The Saints. If Neenah, Eli, and Kev don’t suit the aesthetic of your gang, customise their outfits to suit your style.
Will Saints Row Feature Multiplayer?
Yes! Saints Row will include a cooperative multiplayer mode where your friends can join your criminal ventures.
Is Saints Row a PC Exclusive?
No! Saints Row is available to all budding gang bosses on PC, XBOX One, XBOX Series X/S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.
Unfortunately, Saints Row does not feature support for crossplay across different platforms. However, you will be able to play with friends who have a different generation of consoles. If you have a PlayStation 5, you can still play with your friends who have the older PlayStation 4.
