After the space faring antics of Saints Row IV, many fans asked what we could do next… the answer? Shoot The Devil in the face. Play as either Johnny Gat or Kinzie Kensington as you tear apart Hell in a quest to save the leader of the Saints’ soul. Historical icons, old friends, older enemies, a talking gun, a full length musical number, and a whole lot of other shenanigans all await you in the open world standalone expansion playground that is Saints Row: Gat Out Of Hell.
Play as Johnny Gat or Kinzie Kensington – For the first time ever, play as the fan favorites Johnny Gat and Kinzie Kensington, alone or in 2-player online co-op.
An Open World from Hell – Wage war against the Prince of Darkness through-out the 5 unique districts of hell any way you want: rescue allies, pick a fight with nightmarish Arch-Dukes, rob Satan’s soul processing plants… dozens of options await you in an all new city unlike any that’s been seen in Saints Row before.
New Supernatural Powers –The acclaimed super powers of Saints Row 4 are back with a hellish twist - Soar through the air on fallen angel’s wings, summon devilish imps to attack your foes, and surround yourself in a divine aura that forces all to worship you.
Outrageous Weapons – Put the 7 deadly sins to good use with an arsenal of underworld themed arms: fire exploding frogs at enemies, shoot swarms of locusts, and even deal destruction from afterlife’s most comfortable (and lethal) armchair.
Kill Dex – We promise you can do it this time. Pinky swear.
So far, this is the only Saints Row game that didn't have bugs or constantly crash on me. This one actually had fun challenges that didn't seem too repetitive and glitchy. Getting to play as both Johnny and Kinzie was also fun, but it did suck that this is the ONLY SR game that didn't have any kind of character customization or alternate clothing options. I mean, it was hell, and there wasn't even the option to earn outfits through missions or activities, despite not being able purchase any suits in game with wages. That part was lame, but the rest of the game was original and entertaining.
no one ever told me this was a fking musical?!?!?!?!
big surprise there, laughed at first but as it dragged on it just became annoying.
fun game though, no loading issues, max graphic settings, max resolution. no issues. xbox controller compatible, PS controller yes but the anolog sticks are inverted. and yes i do mean both anolog sticks are inverted (PS4 contrtoller). other than that its basically for but in hell.
Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell is a standalone expansion of Saints Row IV. This time, instead of being the president of the united states plugged into the matrix by aliens, you play as an established character saving the custom protagonist of the previous games from being married off to Satan's daughter. This is achieved by doing things to annoy Satan until you've sufficiently ticked them off to open the final boss.
I do appreciate a game that doesn't force you to do anything specific. You could recruit all the side characters and do their missions, or maybe you'll just get into sandbox hijinks for 6 hours. Engaging with the content gets you extra powers and weapons, but you don't actually need any of them to do the final battle. Not as much freedom as Breath of the Wild for speed-running the plot, but at least it makes sure you've got the basics down before the final showdown.
This is the kind of sandbox game I miss. A story that doesn't take itself too seriously, a good movement system (you're basically superman) and an assortment of fun powers and weapons. For someone who remembers the PS3 generation, it's like a mixture of Infamous: Festival of Blood and Just Cause 2. Only real detractor is it doing that thing where you pick you're ending from a list and if you're anything like me the first thing you'll do on finishing is look up the alternate endings on YouTube. If you liked the cathartic experience of GTA Vice City/San Andreas and haven't tried Saints Row, it's worth trying
For anyone who hasn't played before and wants the full experience, I'd recommend going back to Saints Row II and starting from there (The game titled "Saints Row" on most stores is actually a franchise reboot and doesn't tie into the other games. The developer doesn't seem to include the original in bundles maybe there's a license issue?) but finishing IV would be bare minimum to get what's going on since Gat Out of Hell doesn't spend any time on recapping.
If the Saints Row reboot never happened, Gat out of Hell would still be the worst game in this franchise. This game is basically what amounts to an overpriced and under-achieving standalone DLC.
Gat out of Hell costs $15, it has a grand total of 8 missions which can be beaten in 4 hours, and it ripped out more features from Saints Row IV than I can even count. They were too cheap to spend any money on songs for the radio, so this game has absolutely no music in it. The map is boring and lifeless, even more empty than Steelport. The game's cutscenes are also done as a musical, which probably appeals to about 3% of Saints Row fans. The story is stupid, boring, and pretty lazy at times.
The only good thing is that you get to be Johnny Gat.
4/10
this is everything i want in a game, free roaming, play at your pace, and being in the center of hell when my job is to murder anything and everything. by far the best in the series. my only complaint is it's too short.
