The new Saints Row won’t be quite as wild as some past entries in the series, but don’t worry, the game isn’t getting too serious. It seems a lot of the traditional Saints Row weirdness will be introduced via its various customization options, which developer Volition showed off today.
Players will have the ability to completely customize their main character, right down to the size of their, er, bulge (of course), as well as their vehicles, weapons, and HQ. This stuff isn’t just cosmetic either, as you can apply modifiers to your rides that might outfit them with destructive wrecking balls or the ability to drive sideways like a crab. Meanwhile, you can mix form and function with weapons, loading a rocket launcher into a guitar case for instance. Need to know more? You can check out the Saints Row customization trailer, below.
