Experience the full package, remastered. Steelport, the original city of sin, has never looked so good as it drowns in sex, drugs, and guns. In Saints Row: The Third Remastered, the Third Street Saints are at the height of power—and yours to control. This is your city. These are your rules.
An Over-the-Top Action Adventure
Saints Row: The Third Remastered is a high-octane action-adventure game that serves as a satirical, "turned up to eleven" take on the open-world crime genre. While many sandbox games strive for gritty realism, this title leans into a colorful, cartoonish chaos. Players step into the shoes of the leader of the Third Street Saints, a gang that has transitioned from street thugs to global cultural icons with their own clothing brands, energy drinks, and movie deals.
The gameplay mechanics focus on pure, unadulterated mayhem. Whether you are engaging in hand-to-hand combat inspired by pro wrestling—featuring moves like Superman punches and tornado DDTs—or utilizing an absurd arsenal of weaponry, the goal is destruction. The game offers a massive variety of tools for chaos, ranging from standard Uzis and rocket launchers to the more eccentric, such as laser beams and "The Penetrator." For those who prefer heavy metal, players can even commandeer tanks to flatten anything in their path.
A Story of Revenge and Rebuilding
The narrative begins with the Saints at the pinnacle of fame, but a botched bank robbery leads to a disastrous confrontation with The Syndicate. This shadowy coalition of three powerful gangs strips the Saints of their wealth and forces them into the new city of Steelport. Following the presumed death of legendary figure Johnny Gat, you must lead the gang through a bloody blood feud to reclaim your empire.
The story strikes a unique balance between serious revenge-driven stakes and outright hilarity. One moment you may be navigating a high-stakes mission involving skydiving from a plane; the next, you could find yourself interrogating members of a BDSM club or fighting off luchadors. It is a journey defined by its unpredictable tone and cinematic insanity.
