Get an exclusive “behind the scenes” look into the studio of developer Volition and watch Jim Boone, Senior Producer, Steve Jaros, Creative Director and Chris Claflin, Lighting Lead, at Volition being probed about the vision behind the creation of the fourth game in the Saints Row series! They speak about the gigantic playground that the open world in Saints Row IV offers to the player and how important the feedback of their fans is for the development of a new title in the series.

In the next open-world installment of Saints Row, Deep Silver Volition continues the story of the Third Street Saints by elevating their status to the highest level – the leaders of the free world. In Saints Row IV, the head honcho of the Saints has been elected to the Presidency of the United States. But the Saints are just getting started. Now the larger-than-life insanity of the Saints series gets a new twist with a catastrophic alien invasion, and the aliens have transported the Saints to a bizarro-Steelport simulation. Wield gargantuan superpowers and fight to free humanity from alien granddaddy Zinyak’s mental grasp. Escape the simulation that’s trapped the Saints crew, or die trying.

Saints Row IV is coming to the PS3, 360, and PC August 20.
