Of the Saints Row reboot stands n after a shift almost at the door now! The release date of the crazy gang leader title is August 24th, and the open world adventure promises mainly one thing: many options to adapt everything to your own taste. Already in the trailer it is clear that weapons, cars and even the headquarters can be customized to be exactly the boss you dream of.

The greatest care is taken and you spend the longest time right at the beginning of the game when you create your character. Developer Deep Silver promises the most detailed and comprehensive editor since the moon landing, in other words a real time waster. The name: Boss Factory! An application that allows players to create and share their character before release. The Saints Row Character Creator is coming to Playstation 4, Playstation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series and PC via the Epic Store on June 9th – right now! And it’s completely free.

In fact, we have quite a few options that we can use to create our boss. Limits are hardly set, except by your own imagination. First of all: You don’t have to create your character from scratch, you can choose from a list of ready-made bosses.

There’s also the option of running a random number generator across the face, which doesn’t always produce the prettiest results due to the sheer variety of possibilities, but it does provide an interesting template to go from there.

If you don’t want to do any work, but still don’t want an off-the-shelf model, you can also opt for a boss created by the community. Saving and sharing a boss earns you two exclusive DJ helmets that can then be donned in-game.

Apart from that, you can vote for the prettiest bosses and finally sort them by popularity. Gamertags also make it possible to visit your friends’ character libraries if they have uploaded something.

Special options at a glance

Colors can be set completely individually, giving us the opportunity to give many options a particularly personal touch.

However, if you have the leisure to jump into the character editor without a safety net, you have pretty much every option you could wish for. In addition to the basic stature, which fluctuates between fat, thin and muscular, there are still some fine-tuning, ranging from veins to scars to body shine.

There are also prostheses for arms and legs in different versions, for which new materials can be unlocked later in the game. To what extent the appearance in the game itself goes beyond changing anyway interchangeable parts is unfortunately not yet known, but clothes and many other things will probably be able to be adjusted at any time.
