Saints Row developer Volition brings superhero powers to a futuristic open world. Here’s our first look at Agents of Mayhem!
Volition has announced their next game today, a zany open world action romp called Agents of Mayhem. The developer’s previous projects include 2013’s Saints Row IV and 2015’s Saints Row: Gat out of Hell, both of which took the series to soaring new heights with ridiculous missions and over-the-top superhero powers.
So given this foundation, it only makes sense that Agents of Mayhem is prepared to take this hero and villain mentality to an all-new extreme. That much is clear from the debut cinematic trailer, which introduces us to some of the good guys and baddies who will be rampaging through a futuristic version of Seoul. On the agency side, we have such larger than life heroes as Fortune and Hardtack, taking on the nefarious Doctor Babylon.
While there’s no actual gameplay footage to be seen just yet, we can expect to learn more details as E3 quickly approaches. Agents of Mayhem is slated to come out sometime in 2017.
