In a bit of a surprise, developer Deep Silver Volition posted an announcement that the upcoming Saints Row reboot would be delayed until Aug. 23, 2022.
Chief creative officer Jim Boone explained in the notice that the development of the game was severely impacted by COVID, and the team needed more time to refine the final product.
While delays are generally disappointing to hear, gamers may breathe a sigh of relief with this update, as it frees up a very crowded February 2022. Horizon Forbidden West, Sifu, Dying Light 2: Stay Human, Destiny 2: The Witch Queen, Elden Ring, and many more are slated for release that month.
