The latest "Saints Row" game, "Saints Row: Reboot", was released in 2022. It is a mess. The character design is very DEI and very "correct".Sure enough, the rebooted version had a bad reputation and poor sales.A reboot was never what fans wanted, but now fans of the series can perhaps look forward to a prequel.

Saints Row 1 director Chris Stockman revealed that he was asked by publisher Embracer to create a proposal for a Saints Row prequel.Chris Stockman has previously expressed his intention to bring the original cast back to the series, and now this wish seems to be coming true.

Chris Stockman first shared the news on Reddit. He also specifically mentioned that the new game is not a VR game and he is very much looking forward to its return.

Chris Stockman left developer Volition right after the release of Saints Row 1 and established his own studio to focus on VR games.However, Chris Stockman's post on Reddit has emphasized that the "Saints Row" prequel is not a VR game, but a complete console work.

With Saints Row: The Rebooted flopping, could a prequel game from the original cast of Saints Row save the series?
