===Official Description===
  +
''Years after taking Stilwater for their own, the Third Street Saints have evolved from street gang to household brand name, with Saints sneakers, Saints energy drinks and Johnny Gat bobblehead dolls all available at a store near you. The Saints are kings of Stilwater, but their celebrity status has not gone unnoticed. The Syndicate, a legendary criminal fraternity with pawns in play all over the globe, has turned its eye on the Saints and demands tribute.
  +
  +
''Refusing to kneel to the Syndicate, you take the fight to Steelport, a once-proud metropolis reduced to a struggling city of sin under Syndicate control. Take a tank skydiving, call in a satellite-targeted airstrike on a Mexican wrestling gang, and defend yourself against a highly-trained military force using only a sex toy in the most outlandish gameplay scenarios ever seen, igniting a city-wide war that will set Steelport on fire.
  +
  +
''Saints Row: The Third gives you control of the Saints at the height of their power, and you live the life to show for it. Now Steelport is ripe for the taking, and it's up to you to make the city your own. Mold the skyline based on your choices, outfit your crew in classy gangster gear or furry costumes, and make life-or-death decisions that will change Steelport, and the Saints, forever. This is now your city. These are now your rules. STRAP IT ON.

Saints Row: The Third[2] is a game in the Saints Row series.

Strap it on.
— Tagline

Overview

The game begins with the player "on top of the world, right at the beginning of the game, with all the perks that go along with being the head of an elite criminal organization".[3] Like the previous two games in the series, Saints Row and Saints Row 2, the game is an open-world sandbox. Whereas the previous games charted the 3rd Street Saints' rise to power over Stilwater, Saints Row: The Third charts their adventure in a new city: Steelport.

Professor Genki, a character from the Professor Genki's Super Ethical Reality Climax Activity, has served as an unofficial mascot for the gameTemplate:Ref?, and has two vehicles[4][5] and a weapon[6] named after him.

At Gamescom 2018, it was announced that Saints Row: The Third would be ported to the Nintendo Switch.[7]

Official Description

Years after taking Stilwater for their own, the Third Street Saints have evolved from street gang to household brand name, with Saints sneakers, Saints energy drinks and Johnny Gat bobblehead dolls all available at a store near you. The Saints are kings of Stilwater, but their celebrity status has not gone unnoticed. The Syndicate, a legendary criminal fraternity with pawns in play all over the globe, has turned its eye on the Saints and demands tribute.

Refusing to kneel to the Syndicate, you take the fight to Steelport, a once-proud metropolis reduced to a struggling city of sin under Syndicate control. Take a tank skydiving, call in a satellite-targeted airstrike on a Mexican wrestling gang, and defend yourself against a highly-trained military force using only a sex toy in the most outlandish gameplay scenarios ever seen, igniting a city-wide war that will set Steelport on fire.

Saints Row: The Third gives you control of the Saints at the height of their power, and you live the life to show for it. Now Steelport is ripe for the taking, and it's up to you to make the city your own. Mold the skyline based on your choices, outfit your crew in classy gangster gear or furry costumes, and make life-or-death decisions that will change Steelport, and the Saints, forever. This is now your city. These are now your rules. STRAP IT ON.

Plot

Saints Row: The Third takes place in 2014,[8] "years after"[3] the events of Saints Row 2. With the Sons of Samedi, the Ronin, and the Brotherhood of Stilwater dispersed,[9][10][11] both Dane Vogel and Julius Little dead,[12][13] and Dex gone,[14] the 3rd Street Saints have gone from a small-time gang from the Row to a household brand name in Stilwater (complete with 3rd Street Saints-branded clothes, energy drinks and Johnny Gat bobble head dolls, as well as a movie deal in the works).[3] Furthermore, with Vogel gone, the 3rd Street Saints have partnered with their former nemesis, Ultor, and have become the "Saints/Ultor Media Group", now that Eric Gryphon has firmly secured his position as Chief Executive.[15]

The game begins with the 3rd Street Saints planning to rob a bank in Stilwater.[16] After the execution of the plan goes awry (partly due to Josh Birk, an actor who accompanied the robbery to research for a part in an upcoming film about the Saints, tripping a silent alarm), Playa, Shaundi, and Johnny Gat find themselves in prison, only to be bailed out by Viola and Kiki DeWynter following the orders of Phillipe Loren.

Aboard his private plane, Phillipe Loren reveals himself; it transpires that the Saints robbed a bank belonging to The Syndicate, and Loren, along with his personal assistants Viola and Kiki DeWynter; demand they turn over 66% of their assets in return for their lives. After Gat blatantly refuses, a skirmish leads to Shaundi and Playa escaping Loren's personal plane via parachute and heading for a new city, Steelport, beneath, while Gat is killed by Loren's enforcers while attempting to commandeer the plane back to Stilwater.[17]

Steelport is a city that was created as factories flourished with little city planning, and since has suffered from economic failure, contrasting the glamour of Stilwater. Steelport is the Syndicate's hub city, and the Saints must take Steelport from them. To extend their reach they have divided their control of the city through three gangs. Morningstar, lead by Loren directly, are typically European men and women, with impeccable taste, selling guns and handling the prostitution rings.[18][19] The Mexican wrestler Killbane controls the Luchadores who handle the drug trade and gambling.[20] The Deckers, led by hacktivist Matt Miller, are computer geniuses, and handle the money laundering.[21] As the gang war intensifies, a fourth group, the Special Tactical Anti-Gang (STAG) unit from the government attempts to halt gang activity, whether it be the 3rd Street Saints or the Syndicate.Template:Ref?

Choices

Choices are given at the end of major missions. No choices affect the outcome of the game except for the choice during Three Way.

In a pre-release developer interview, it was stated that choosing to keep the Syndicate Tower during The Belgian Problem would unlock it as a Crib, which "[would be] beneficial as it's in a well-situated area of the city".[22] In the game, it is not actually a Crib, instead simply giving an hourly cash bonus if not destroyed.[23]

Sequel

During an interview with X-Play, THQ executive VP Danny Bilson claimed that story details for "Saints Row 4" had already been decided on. "Like any game, if you have a great creative core to it you just keep exploiting that core," he told G4. "For instance," he went on, "I know what Saints Row 4 is about and it is wilder than this one. It's a good example of how you take what you have and you ask, 'what could happen in the next?" added Bilson, without giving up any actual details.[28]

Marketing

  • Competitive multiplayer is not included in Saints Row: The Third.[29][30]
  • The PlayStation 3 version of Saints Row: The Third was announced to include an exclusive mode, which was reported to have utilized the PlayStation Move,[31] but this was proved to be incorrect.[32]
    • It was later announced that instead, PS3 copies would include a digital copy of Saints Row 2 if an older online pass was redeemed.Template:Ref?
  • On September 13th 2011, Heyday Footwear released Saints Row-themed sneakers, named the Saints Row Super Shift Sneakers. The sneakers also feature in Saints Row: The Third and can be bought for Playa to wear.[33]
  • Tomonobu Itagaki (famous for creating Dead or Alive) was revealed to be a playable character at the Tokyo Game Show 2011.[34]
  • Crooks & Castles teamed up with Volition, Inc. to make Saints Row: The Third merchandise, including a snapback hat, a wallet, denim jeans, a hoodie, a checkered shirt, a stadium jacket and some Saints Row t-shirts. These are available to buy in real life and are featured in-game for Playa to wear.[35]
  • The Initiation Station was released ahead of Saints Row: The Third's release, and allows players to customize their character for free, as well as share them with the community and download those made by other players.[36]
  • In a livestream interview with Destructoid one week prior to Saints Row: The Third's release, Steve Jaros, one of the writers of the Saints Row series, cited Titus Andronicus as a prime example of something that had to be removed from the game for going "too far".[37] Titus Andronicus is a play by William Shakespeare notorious for its violence, such as cannibalism, murder, and rape, and is widely regarded as the worst of Shakespeare's written works.
  • In Team Fortress 2, three Saints Row-themed items were released to those who preordered Saints Row: The Third: the Apoca-Fists, the Mark of the Saint, and the Cold War Luchadore.

Trivia

  • Saints Row: The Third is the sixth game in the franchise.[49]
  • The game's story was originally going to be about an undercover cop infiltrating the 3rd Street Saints.[50] which somewhat bears similarities to Troy's role as an undercover cop who infiltrates the Saints.
  • Despite the heavy online integration of Saints Row: The Third, there is no online integration between different platforms. For example, it is not possible to upload a character on PC and download it on Xbox 360.
  • This is the first game where a gang has only 1 prominent member.
  • In May of 2012, THQ announced the development of a large expansion DLC pack for Saints Row: The Third titled Saints Row: The Third: Enter the Dominatrix. Originally falsified information released on April Fools' Day, this major expansion pack was later confirmed to become a full-blown reality in September of that same year, and cost around $29.99. On June 20, 2012, Jason Rubin, THQ's new president, stated that he and the developers at Volition had agreed to cancel the development of Enter the Dominatrix as a standalone expansion for the third game, and instead merge its assets with Saints Row IV.
    • More than a year after that statement was made, the subsequent bankruptcy of THQ, the acquisition of Volition and the Saints Row Franchise by Deep Silver, and the release of the fourth game, Enter the Dominatrix was finally released on October 22, 2013 as a DLC mission pack for Saints Row IV.
  • Saints Row: The Third is banned in the United Arab Emirates, likely due to sexual content and/or drinking.[51]
  • In the CGI trailer for Saints Row: The Third, there is a part where Johnny Gat is shot in the chest, foreshadowing the fact that Johnny dies in the beginning of the game.
  • Saints Row: The Third was released as a free game for Xbox Live Gold members throughout the second half of May 2014.
  • The game was originally named Saints Row 3.
  • There was going to be a free running mechanic were you could jump across the roofs of cars.
  • There was a sunset time of day that featured a darkened orange/red sky.
  • Police officers had a completely different model than the one in the final game.
  • Brutes looked different and had Brotherhood inspired tattoos on them.
  • The Nintendo Switch port is the first Saints Row released on a Nintendo system, and the second announced Nintendo title after Saints Row: Drive-By.
