Saints Row: The Third Remastered Reviews
It's back, bigger, better, and more over-the-top than you can possibly imagine.
Saints Row is unrealistic in the best way possible, and what it lacks in substance it makes up for in outrageous antics and a priceless, middle-school sense of humor.
Deep Silver and Volition have something really special with the Saints Row franchise, and it honestly doesn’t get any better than Saints Row: The Third Remastered.
The remaster is visually and technically convincing and also offers the complete Saints Row experience including all additional content.

Saints Row: The Third Remastered is a great come back for a 10 year old game. beside the strengths of the original game, Remastered version offers truly impressive visual upgrades which sometimes even look like true remake rather than a simple remaster. Saints Row: The Third Remastered is a great remaster of a very fun game that is surely worth a try.

Saints Row: The Third Remastered is one of the best remasters in recent years, completely overhauling the visuals and performance. Almost everything has been updated and upgraded bar the engine underneath, a similar concept we saw with Outcast: Second Contact. The game is a mindless mayhem sandbox with a bunch of missions and crazy activities to work your way through at your own pace, offering tonnes of fun either playing on your own or with another player. The game was fun back in 2011, offering crazy non-serious GTA-style gameplay, and it’s just as fun playing it now, in 2020.
We played the original Saints Row The Third to death when it released and found the game took us up to the upper echelons of gaming madness but still kept its toes in some warped reality. In this regard, the game is full of character and we love it. The remaster then makes an already cool game even better and for those who love visual elements will especially be pleased at Volition’s efforts here.
A "remaster" like Crash Bandicoot N-Sane Trilogy: the original content remains intact (gameplay, missions... even the flaws), and renew it all with a superb face wash, that show its best side with the light effects, reflections, models... A nice update of one great adventure that keeps giving fun like almost 10 years ago,

Saints Row The Third is an experience that drops all pretence of realism, the digital city of Steelport is presented as a sandbox of colourful, comic, and juvenile excess.
Saints Row the Third Remastered is a massive slab of fun and depravity that will remind you why this series became GTA's most successful rival
This Genki-sized update is more than just a polish job, it's the whole enchilada. With visual upgrades and a dash of physics improvements, it's sure to draw any Saints Row fan in all over again. Now we've just gotta get rid of the Genki-sized bugs.
Saints Row: The Third Remastered is a quirky and addictive action game that's one of the best remasters on Xbox One.
It's still the same old crude, ridiculous, and daft Saints Row The Third as it ever was, complete with many of its original mechanical shortcomings, but the remaster does a wonderful job of making it look better than ever.
Saints Row: The Third Remastered is a self-aware, bombastic crime romp through a playground of a city that the player can wreak havoc in. The Third Street Saints are ridiculous, the missions are stupid, and the game looks better than ever. While this is unlikely to be anyone's favorite title, it's an unforgettably dumb and enjoyable adventure all the same.
Saints Row: The Third Remastered is definitely a success. Here is a highly polished version of the game that fans love – still fun, exciting, but now also beautiful.

Saints Row: The Third Remastered is an impressive return to this title. The developer went out of their way to bring this title back with plenty of upgrades and overhauls to make it feel like we remember. I do wish the game remained locked at 60fps on the newer consoles, even if it sacrificed some of the resolution though. As it stands this is the best version of the game to date and a perfect excuse for me to overrun Steelport once again.
Saints Row: The Third Remastered brings the classic three-quel back warts and all, and that’s ok. Even if some elements haven’t aged gracefully, the majority of the experience still retains the chaotic fun of the original and provides an experience most anyone out for some mindless fun could find hours of enjoyment in.
A stunning remaster of an incredibly entertaining game, Saints Row: The Third Remastered more than justifies its existence in a world dominated by Grand Theft Auto V.
While it's by no means a bad game, Saints Row: The Third Remastered may be just a bit too dated for newcomers to fully enjoy.
Running around, shooting people, stealing cars and shoving grenades down throats. That's what you want from a Saints Row game. Newcomers to the franchise will enjoy the heck out of it, but longtime fans won't find anything new. Pretty, but not new.
