Saints Row: The Third remastered.

Saints Row: The Third gets remastered for PS4, Xbox One, and PC

Publisher Deep Silver announced today Saints Row: The Third is getting a remaster, which will release for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on May 22.

The open-world game first came out back in 2011. This third entry in the franchise was something of a turning point for Saints Row, with the series becoming less of a Grand Theft Auto clone and more of a full-blown GTA parody, focusing on humor and over-the-top action. The game was a hit, selling over 5.5 million copies. Saints Row: The Third is now old enough to enter nostalgic territory, so a remaster could return a nice profit for Deep Silver.
