How it plays

  • A second player can drop into the whole campaign online at any time, roaming the city freely or teaming up for story missions and the Whored wave-survival mode.

  • It is crude, silly and violent, which suits adults who want chaos rather than a serious story.

  • Both players need a copy on the same platform.

  • PlayStation and Xbox sell it as Saints RowThe Third Remastered, and Steam sells the original and the remaster separately.

  • Action
  • Newcomer friendly
