Five Things I Want From Saints Row 5 (And One I Don't)

It’s been a while since we got a new Saints Row game, with the release of Gat out of Hell, but finally, it’s been announced - a new Saints Row game is in development! Volition did release Agents of Mayhem, which is set in an alternate universe to the gang ‘em up - but apart from some visual similarities and shared characters, it’s a different beast entirely. Super secret agents just aren’t the same as street-hardened gangsters.

So, since we know it’s coming, here’s what I want from Saints Row 5th. Not an official title, each has followed a different naming convention so I expect this one will be a take on “a fifth” being an alcohol term.

Professor Genki’s Super Ethical Reality Climax

First and foremost, Professor Genki’s famous game show just has to return. Seeing contestants murder their way through the shoddily-made sets is always great fun - I mean it’s right there in the title. Saints Row The Third made it seem like Super Ethical Reality Climax was a huge deal, so it would be weird to not include it. Like how odd it was for them to not include the Cluckin’ Bell fast-food franchise in Steelport. And honestly, I just want an excuse to shoot mascots.
