If the main game doesn’t provide enough of a killing fix, there is Whored mode. It’s weird, it’s humorous, and it’s enjoyable. If you feel the need to leave a path of destruction, you can exit a garage with an alien technology powered tank and crush cop cars and shoot down police helicopters with ease.įurthermore, the DLC elevates the merriment by contributing additional secondary quests like the outlandish ‘Gangstas in Space’ mission pack, in which you’ll find yourself aboard an alien space station and battling Space Amazon.
Thanks to the included DLC, Saints Row: The Third – The Full Package grants the player access to a vast arsenal of vehicles and weapons almost immediately. The secondary quests are often comical and provide some comic relief, though some are rudimentary and task the player with killing members of rival gangs or random pedestrians. There is a wealth of secondary quests that will task players with creative objectives like committing insurance fraud by intentionally getting hit by a car. In fact, the game encourages you to cause havoc and unrest. The experience doesn’t place many restrictions on the player. Accept story missions and advance through the main game or explore the city and make the game your playground. Saints Row: The Third – The Full Package is at its best when you treat it as an unconventional sandbox game and just have fun with what it offers you. Saints Row: The Third – The Full Package has a story to tell, but it mostly serves as background noise or gives a reason as to why a certain action is taking place. Preventing a simple take over are several eccentric rival gangs, and you’ll encounter them periodically over the course of the game’s campaign.
The opening mission has you rob a bank wearing comically oversized masks and this mission is rapidly followed up with you free falling from an airplane while shooting enemies on your descent back to Earth.Īfter these introductory missions, you find yourself grounded in the city of Steelport and motivated to have the city drop to its knees and worship your crew, the Saints. To the game’s credit, it never attempts to hide or downplay its madcap nature.
Saints Row: The Third – The Full Package for Switch may not differ all that much from the PS3, Xbox 360, and PC release of Saints Row: The Third but the amount of content it offers at a budget price is hard to ignore. Saints Row: The Third – The Full Package offers a similar gameplay premise to GTA, but it turns up the absurdity to the highest levels imaginable & encourages the player to be reckless, violent, and irrational. While many sought Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto V for Switch, the gods of gaming heard the pleas and sent saints to silence the cries. It may not be the sworn Saints Row: Drive-By, which was announced for Nintendo 3DS during E3 2010, but Volition’s Saints Row: The Third – The Full Package has arrived and now prays at the altar of the Nintendo Switch. A longstanding promise has been fulfilled as Saints Row is now finally gracing a Nintendo platform with its holy presence.
