Saints Row 2023 roadmap includes three DLC expansions

thesixthaxis.com:

Volition has released a new roadmap for 2022’s Saints Row, with the studio confirming that the series reboot will be getting three new DLC expansions this year. The roadmap also includes two new city districts, vehicles, cosmetics, and missions. The city districts will be free to all players, while the missions will be part of the expansion pass.

The first piece of content though is a cosmetic crossover with Dead Island 2, with free items arriving in June inspired by the zombie game. May will see the release of the first expansion, The Heist and the Hazardous, which will also see the addition of the Sunshine Springs district. The May update will also add a selfie mode and combat improvements. July sees the second expansion which is Doc Ketchum’s Murder Circus, along with a further free update. However, it is not known what the content of that update will be. Finally, in August the third expansion will be released. It is yet to be named but the free update will also see the addition of the next new district, as well as further updates.
