Saints Row Video Game Series

Created by Volition Inc. studio, the open-world TPP action game series. Due to its gangster theme and sandbox model of gameplay, the brand was considered one of the competitors of the series Grand Theft Auto, however, it took a turn in a more humorous direction.

First Saints Row was released in 2006. Despite the fact that the production of the Volition Inc. studio was released only for one (then relatively new) hardware platform - the Xbox 360 console - it was quite successful, achieving sales of more than 2 million copies. Players had to wait until 2008 (and in the case of the PC version - a year longer) for the sequel. Saints Row 2 turned out to be an equally successful and popular product. Production of the third installment of the series began even before the release of "two," but eventually the game Saints Row: The Third hit store shelves only in November 2011. Six months later, a decision was made to start work on the fourth installment of the series, but the financial troubles of the THQ corporation put the project in question. In January 2013, the rights to the brand were taken over by Deep Silver, from whose wings Saints Row IV came out just eight months later. The series then stalled for almost seven long years. In May 2020, a remaster of the third installment of the series hit store shelves, the Saints Row: The Third Remastered. More than two years later, in August 2022, the fifth part of the series saw the light of day. Saints Row, because that was the name of that title, was also a "soft" reboot of the brand.
