Saints Row Revival in the Works by Original Designer, Embracer Interested
Chris Stockman, the lead designer of the original Saints Row, has revealed that he’s developing a proposal for a fresh entry in the series, which has been dormant since 2022. After fans requested a reboot concept, Stockman shared his vision, clarifying that it’s more than just an idea: Embracer has expressed interest. Although he currently works at a VR game studio, Stockman specified that he’s not planning a VR adaptation of Saints Row, but rather a completely new game. Stockman told PCGamesN that Embracer contacted him after he publicly floated the idea for a new Saints Row title. He believes the series has recently lost its focus and envisions a story set in the 1970s, centering on the young characters who would eventually become the criminals from the first game. Embracer has requested a formal proposal, and Stockman is now assembling the original Saints Row team to bring this new vision to life.
