Things start off in an over-the-top Saints Row fashion where your character (you play yourself and you’ll design it from head to toe) ‘The Boss’ is indeed the President of the United States after events, which took place five years earlier, that had your popularity shoot to the top. Saints Row: The Third improved quite drastically, but Saints Row IV: Re-Elected, which is the remaster of the original Saints Row IV on last gen consoles, is a unique proposition.

I am the first to admit that the first two Saints Row outings weren’t anything special to get you overly excited, which is a shame, as it’s the benchmark for many players looking at anything ‘Saints Row’ related going forward. Something that you need to take a moment to process… Saints Row IV: Re-Elected is one of the very best ‘Super Hero’ games ever made. I’m about to tell you something very important. Because of this it’s always played second fiddle to the monster that’s the GTA franchise, until now.

It’s after all an open-world sandbox game. The Saints Row franchise has always been compared to anything that GTA does.
