The release of Saints Row, Volition's upcoming reboot of its original action-adventure game that first debuted in 2006, is right around the corner.

As such, for those interested in playing the game on day one, here is a breakdown of the Saints Row pre-order bonus.

Saints Row Pre-Order Bonus: What is it?

No matter what edition of Saint Row players go for, the exclusive pre-order bonus that Deep Silver is giving out is the Idols Anarchy Pack, which is said to feature a selection of stolen neon equipment:

  • Idols DJ Helmet
  • Twinkle Bat
  • Sandstorm Scrambler

"Let loose your inner anarchist!" Deep Silver's description reads. "Tear up the streets of Santo Ileso with The Idols Anarchy Pack.

"Don the iconic digitized DJ Helmet to light up your enemies' faces before smashing them unconscious with the Idols Twinkle Bat, all to the sound of broken glass, then speed off on your stolen neon-illuminated Sandstorm Scrambler bike."

However, there is also another extra pre-order bonus to be had.

and a Saints Custom Jacket.

Saints Row is set to release for PlayStation 4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC (via Epic Games Store) on Aug. 23, 2022.

Goodbye Stilwater, Michigan, hello Santo Ileso.

With the tagline "self made" it appears Saints Row will be reimagining how the 2006 original enabled players to start their new criminal empire.

From Newbie to Boss, with what is being hailed as the series' "most extensive character creator ever," the 2022 reboot invites players to take over the fictional American city Santo Ileso, the "biggest and best Saints Row playground ever" spread across nine unique districts surrounded by the vast Southwest Desert.

As shown in its announcement trailer, the Saints are made up of a new group of four young guns who aren't afraid to go over the top with revolvers, rocket launchers, miniguns and fast and furious driving action.
