Saints Row Will Let Players Customize Their Character Before Release

gamerant.com:

Ahead of its launch in August, Saints Row has given players an in-depth look into all the customization options. Players will be able to design their own Boss as they see fit, as well as deeply customize their vehicles and HQ. It was previously said that Saints Row’s character creator would be the series’ most in-depth yet, and it shows.

Just looking at the character customization in Saints Row, it’s clear players can get lost in it for hours. They are a ton of options for everything imaginable, including unique approaches like asymmetrical face design. In other words, players can create a variety of face options with how they want to design each half of it. One side could have smeared lipstick, while the other could have a huge, caved-in facial disfigurement.

From the aforementioned options down to the hair, clothing, prosthetics, skin material (players could look like a forest elf, should they so choose, or a witch, or a baby, or a chiseled Disney-like character), and more, it’s easy to get lost in these options. There are presets for players wanting something simple so they can dive right in, but someone who wants to spend hours here too doesn’t have to put off playing Saints Row at launch to do so.

Prior to this new trailer, Game Rant recently viewed a presentation where Volition, at the end, confirmed players would be able to design their Saints Row Boss sooner than launch. Details are forthcoming, but the long and short of it is that players will be able to access the character customization ahead of Saints Row’s release date and do everything they would normally do. When wasn’t specified either, but this will likely take place sometime in late summer/early August
