About Saints Row 2

About this game

The battle for the streets intensifies in comical action-packed carnage with Saints Row 2.

With this Steam PC key, you'll experience true freedom to open-world gaming. Players can play as they want, how they want, and with whomever they want in this sequel to the much acclaimed and tremendously successful Saints Row.

Set years after the original, the player finds himself in a Stilwater both familiar and strange and challenged with bringing the Saints back as the rightful kings of Stilwater and bringing vengeance to those who wronged him.

CUSTOMIZATIONS GALORE

Play as fully customizable characters that are male, female, or something in between. Vehicles can be visually customized as well as performance tuned. Cribs and even gangs all have an amazing degree of detailed customization options.

JUMP ONLINE

The co-op full story campaign has seamless integration (for example one player drives while the other shoots). 

- Competitive MP pushes the boundaries of immersion in a living Stillwater environment fully populated with police, innocent bystanders, and rival gangs.

EVERYTHING KILLS

Planes, helicopters, motorcycles, boats, and cars can be piloted and used as weapons. On the ground, new combat options include melee, fine aim, and human shield.

TAKE A STROLL

More missions, activities, diversions, races, weapons, vehicles, cribs, city districts, and interiors than ever before. Over 40 story missions with additional bonus missions take place in a transformed Stilwater that is over 50% larger than before.

When you first try to start the game it will crash on startup as its using the Linux native version. You can force it to use the Windows version by selecting Proton Experimental under Compatibility settings. Then the Steam Deck will download the Windows files and the game will play smoothly without crashing after that.

Amazing but broken

Saints Row 2 is extremely fun but really buggy and broken. Would be five stars if the PC port was any good, luckily, a fix was made by IdolNinja who just recently passed away RIP: https://www.saintsrowmods.com/forum/threads/gentlemen-of-the-row.24/

Saints Row 2 is a super cool game. For a long time I wanted to play it and the other parts. I finally managed to buy all the parts except the newest one which came out recently and the first part which is for console. Saints Row 2 doesn't have the best graphics, but it's quite an interesting action game with a lot of things you can do in the game. The vulgar language may be a little too much for some, but otherwise it's super fun. Hand on heart, I sincerely recommend it to be played by anyone who likes this kind of games.

Very good, classic GTA-inspired game with a much better storyline. Definitely an easy one to recommend for any fans of the classic trilogy (GTA 3, Vice City and San Andreas).

Still holds up to this day. Download the "Gentlemen of the Row" mod, it's essential.

Saints row 2 overall is possibly the best entry in the saints row series, and I would normally highly recommend anyone who hasn't played it already to definitely give it a shot. However, it MUST be noted that saints row 2 can be extremely buggy with this PC port. I highly recommend downloading fixes or the gentlemen of the row mod to have an optimal experience.
