Saints Row IV was an utterly ridiculous experience, and developer Volition seems keen to carry that tone through the series' upcoming expansion, Gat Out of Hell. Of course, we knew that already, but the standalone DLC's launch trailer still managed to surprise us.
The video's full of dumb, crass humour and stupid selling points, but there's little else we could ask for from the franchise that brought us turbo golf carts and ray guns that make racist aliens' heads explode. Out next week, the expansion sees fan favourite Johnny Gat descend into Hell itself to rescue the Boss, and as always, there'll be a huge range of daft and deadly weaponry to keep things interesting.
What do you make of Saints Row's madness? Are you a fan, or do you prefer your sandboxes with less testicle jokes? Punch a hole in the comments section below.
Oh, and a quick warning that the trailer does contain some strong language.

WAT?

Trailer of the year? Trailer of the year (nods)
Well that was well interesting, may get it depends on price and reviews.
Lol I want this
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi So you didn't like Saints Row: The Third
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Opposite for me, It picked up after SR2. Before SR3, it felt like a GTA clone. Now, they do they're own thing.
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi
Spot on. 1 was a GTA clone, but 2 while still riffing from other open world games brought the series into it's own and was a great game. Then 3 came along and it started getting dumb, I enjoyed playing 4 but can admit it was beyond stupid and now it just seems to the point of being utterly freaking ridiculous. I want a Saints Row 5, but only if Volition is going to reboot the series and bring it back closer to what 2 was, otherwise, I may have to be done with the series, and I don't want that to be the case.
What?! How DARE you call Saint's Row 'ridiculous', Robert!!!
That's disrespectful to the franchise 😉

Something died after SR2, definitely. Namely the franchise's desperation to be the poor man's Grand Theft Auto. SR3 is when the series finally came into its own and part four kicked the crazy up to 11, which is a good thing in my good. These games are FUN. Sorry you disagree though. It would be be a better world we live in if all people could appreciate the glory that is Saints Row IV.
