The overview video goes over fairly a bit

In case you have been interested by trying out the brand new entry, this Saints Row trailer (which hit YouTube this week) ought to provide you with a fairly good thought of what to anticipate.

Going down in Santo Ileso (which is an amalgamation of the American Southwest), you’ll be part of up together with your in-game buddies (Neenah [get-away driver], Eli [behind-the-scenes assistant], and Kevin [on-the-field partner]) in addition to your out-of-game-buddies (with co-op) to reform the Saints on this new reboot universe. Amid commentary from in-universe characters, this six-minute Saints Row trailer walks you thru the core ideas: creating your legal empire, and exploring Santo Ileso. Even for those who aren’t within the story in any respect, the trailer does a fairly good job of showcasing basic mechanics, just like the customization choices, aspect mission actions, and modes of locomotion (together with gliding).

It’ll be actually fascinating to see the viewers response right here. Based mostly on my prior hands-on I actually dig the world map, however the basic vibe and tone are going to hit in another way relying on what sort of Saints Row fan you’re. In spite of everything, the sequence has sort of been in all places on that entrance, and it’s actually exhausting to prime the prior “aliens/superpowers/hell” combo. Rebooting and resetting made excellent sense.
