Saints Row 5 Release Date Sooner Than Expected

We’ve all heard of Saints Row, and we all love Saints Row. This is a series loved by millions of people. Even if the series started as a clone of the GTA game, it worked really hard for people to acknowledge it. Most people got to know it when it was released across multiple platforms. The story is very catchy, and the activities and missions are really creative.

After the 4th game got released, people started to believe that maybe the developer forgot what made the game so great, and sales were not that great.

Why was the spin-off not that great?
There was also a spin-off called Agents of Mayhem, that is part of the Saints Row universe. The title didn’t really impress the critics and the fans, and this is why Deep Silver, the publisher of the series, may have wanted to stop future projects for some time. Volition, which is the developer of the game did not comment on this matter. Many believe that this happened due to the former publisher going bankrupt.

The publisher of the game was all hyped about Agents of Mayhem, and it makes the title look like the next big thing. However, the ties with the original games aren’t really there. Then poor sales happened, and there was a lot of pressure on Volition since their studio might need to get closed.

The company has not developed a new Saints Row game ever since an expansion in 2015. The lack of a good story mode was what made the spin-off so bad. Hence, people aren’t interested in Saints Row anymore.

However, there’s still hope that Saints Row 5 will be developed at some time, and that it’s all a secret for now. The community is still active, that’s for sure.

Saints Row Director Thinks It’s Time Series Returns

The last anyone had seen of the Boss in the Saints Row franchise, he had defeated Zinyak and effectively became the new emperor of the Zin empire. While he was already one of the best fictitious presidents in video games, the last installment in this open-world action-adventure franchise saw the Boss turn it up a notch, but since, he has been missing in the video games industry.

Scott Phillips, one of the men behind the Boss, has since moved onto Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, but the Saints Row director was recently asked about the franchise in an interview. Although it was a rapid-fire interview about the upcoming Assassin’s Creed game, Phillips was asked, “You directed Saints Row the Third. Do you think that series needs more time before it comes back?”

Phillips’ answer was in support of the franchise, with the director replying, “It’s been quite a few years…uh, I think it would be good if it came back.” It’s worth mentioning that the Saints Row franchise has returned to THQ Nordic since it recently acquired Deep Silver, the publisher behind Saints Row IV and Agents of Mayhem.

If the series did make a comeback, it would likely excite fans of the series that distinguished itself in its genre with its astute outlandishness, and it certainly seems possible since the developers at Volition have been rather hush-hush. Notably, THQ Nordic is also launching Darksiders III in a few months’ time, which may open up a slot for Saints Row 5.

Of course, there is no evidence that Saints Row 5 is in development, but many may also agree with Phillips that the franchise needs to return. Even though Volition wanted to try its hand with a new IP and explained why it chose it over another Saints Row sequel at E3 2017, it’s safe to say another sequel would be well-received by many, if it was done right. But, of course, fatigue for the franchise may have set in for many others as well. Tell us, Ranters, would you be interested in Saints Row 5?

Saints Row 4 is available now for PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One.

Saints Row Seriesを作った会社の最新作.2017年発売されました.

YouTube WalkthrowのmoviesをみたところNear Futureのソウルが舞台でSaints Row IVに似た感じです.

SF Moviesみたいです.

わたしはやっぱりSaints RowにComebackしてもらいたいです.
USA カルチャーのひとつであるStreet GangsのSaints Rowが好きです.

Famous song.

New Legacyが公表されました.
相変わらず地味なデザイン.
でもLegacyは初代からずっと40代後半から50代の方々向けですから自然とそうなりますね.

世界戦略車も初代からですがUKでは途中からラインナップ落ちしています.
USAでもセダンはあまり売れてなくてワゴンが売れてます.

Japanでは再びPolice carsがでればいいと思います.
LegacyのPolice carはありです.
Crownばかりではつまらないですから久しぶりに入札対象になり落札されればいいですね.
