Get ready to rock the foundations of a larger than life criminal world that feeds all your guilty pleasures. Become a self-made crime boss and crush it as you take over the city. It's our time now, let’s get this party started.

Saints Row is set in Santo Ileso, a vibrant fictional city in the heart of the American Southwest. In a world rife with crime, where lawless factions fight for power, a group of young friends embark on their own criminal venture as they rise to the top in their bid to become Self Made.

As the future Boss, with Neenah, Kevin, and Eli by your side, you’ll form The Saints, and take on Los Panteros, The Idols, and Marshall Defense Technologies as you build your empire across the streets of Santo Ileso and battle for control of the city. Ultimately, Saints Row is the story of a start-up company. It’s just that the business The Saints are in happens to be crime. 

Experience the biggest and best Saints Row playground ever created. The unique sprawling world of Santo Ileso is the backdrop for a wild, larger-than-life sandbox of thrilling side hustles, criminal ventures and blockbuster missions, as you shoot, drive, and wingsuit your way to the top.

Express yourself and unleash your inner Saint with the most advanced suite of customization tools yet seen in an open-world game – make your character, your car, and your crew your own.

Dive into epic gunfights and high-speed chases and witness outrageous only-in-Saints Row moments in an original story that charts the Saints’ remarkable rise to power. Enjoy the freedom of playing the entire campaign with a friend through seamless untethered co-op play, where you can both push the limits of your gang and create your own gameplay moments together. 


Deep Silver and Volition are delighted to announce Boss Factory, a brand new standalone demo that showcases Saints Row’s best and boldest customization suite – and it’s available today as a free download on Xbox, PlayStation and the Epic Games Store.

This Boss Factory is where your Saint is born – developer Volition has removed all boundaries so your Boss can reflect exactly who or what you want them to be. Give your Boss an extreme makeover; it’s time to get funky.

Boss Factory allows you to nip and tuck your Boss to your heart’s content. Along with outfits, hair, footwear, accessories and body options, asymmetrical face customization is included for the very first time so you can really get the creative juices flowing. Players also have the option to choose from one of eight voice options for their Boss, and can choose from scores of emotes to add that extra flair. 

Once you’re happy with your creation, you can save it for later when the game launches, or you can share your creation with the world right now and also download other player characters at SaintsRow.com. After sharing a character from Boss Factory, players will receive two free helmets for use in the game.

The social experience really comes alive on the Boss Factory hub found at SaintsRow.com, Fans and designers can browse galleries of player-created Bosses, and registered users can share or download any creation direct to their console or PC (which can be edited even further using Boss Factory).

When registering for a Saints Row account via the Boss Factory hub, you will receive the exclusive Marshall Rocket Launcher, unlocked and ready to use in the full game at launch.
