Volition has released a six minute gameplay video of Saints Row IV. The Saints Row series is known for being like GTA on steroids, with totally over the top characters, plots, gameplay and violence. Saints Row: The Third really elevated the quality of the franchise, and IV is looking fantastic.
Saints Row IV is set in the fictional Washington DC-like city of Steelport, and the leader of the Saints gang has been elected President of The United States. But taking over the US isn’t the end for the Saints, as Aliens attack earth and you’ll have to fight them off.. with your super powers! This is the antidote for serious, ‘adult’ games like David Cage’s Heavy Rain and Beyond: Two Souls.
Watch the video below, it really shows how volition have pushed Saints Row IV into even more ridiculously fun places.
