A new entry into the Saints Row IP was announced at gamescom 2021 and it takes us into the roots of the Saints Row crew
The Saints are back once more with the announcement that Saints Row is coming fresh from gamescom this year. This mean it is time to let some of the confusion in with the naming convention here as it is not a remake or remaster of the original from Volition, but a new title in the growing line that Deep Silver is putting out there. Naming aside, though, we are getting a new Saints Row now on the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC and will only have to wait until February 25th for it to launch. That is as of right now and hoping that there will not be anything that delays the game out beyond that. I have faith and so should we all.
That is a bit to take in for those Saints Row fans out there, but we do have a little more. A nice long cinematic trailer to show off what we might need to expect in the game here. The core gameplay is coming back, even if it is not shown here, and we also are going to get to see how the crew became self made over their time in Santo Ileso. All while trying to start up their “business” and taking on the variety of new gangs that are on the streets out there and causing all kinds of difficulties. If there is one thing for certain, it is going to be a high-paced and over-the-top experience that we have been waiting for ever since Gat Out Of Hell. Okay, maybe that is me here…
Saints Row — Announce Trailer
Saints Row arrives on February 25, 2022. Witness the birth of the Saints.

Experience the biggest and best Saints Row playground ever created; the unique sprawling world of Santo Ileso is the backdrop for a wild, larger-than-life sandbox of thrilling side hustles, criminal ventures, and blockbuster missions, as you shoot, drive, and wingsuit your way to the top.
