The game features plenty of driving mechanics that we've seen in other games, like drifting, speed boosts in certain vehicles, and weapon blindfiring, but one of my favorite additions is the ability to surf on top of vehicles. I'm never the biggest racing fan in the room, but this reboot delivers a delightful arcade racing experience that reminds me of the soft spot I have for series like Need For Speed Underground, Grand Theft Auto, and even the earlier Saints games.
Today we're showing off an exclusive first look at the reboot's revamped driving system, which includes new ways to engage in car combat! I played a build of Saints Row for several days last month, and the vehicles of Santo Ileso were a joy to maneuver. Many of you asked for action-focused footage following the release of our last Saints Row cover video, and we're happy to finally oblige.
