Both Saints Row IV and Saints Row: Gat out of Hell are finally available for Linux and SteamOS. And we have to admit even from low to high settings, the gameplay is both vivid and very smooth, a great Linux port.
Mind you, the Steam Controller support for the Linux and SteamOS version is coming soon.
To celebrate, for a limited time you can grab Saints Row IV: Game of the Century Edition for 70% off, Saints Row: Gat out of Hell for 66% off, or the entire Saints Row Ultimate Franchise Pack for 66% off.
Key Features
- The American (Fever) Dream – Play as the President of the United States in a story that spans countries, space, and time. Saints Row IV is to Saints Row: The Third what Saints Row: The Third is to Do The Right Thing. You’re not ready.
- Super Hero-in-Chief – Leap over buildings. Kill people with your mind. Run through tanks. Those are some of the most mundane powers you will wield in your quest to stop an alien menace hell-bent on destroying the Earth.
- Alien Toys of Destruction – Wield an impressive array of alien vehicles and weapons… FOR SCIENCE!
- Custom Weapons, Custom Mayhem – You’ve customized your character. You’ve customized your clothes. Now you can complete the look with our all new weapon customization system. Turn traditional weapons into exotic conversation pieces!
- Dynamic Duo – Seamless drop-in, drop-out co-op, a Saints Row standard, improved. The only thing better than one malicious super-powered President is two.
The system requirements are not ridiculous, so most everyone should be able to play both games. Even AMD is supported with the more recent Catalyst drivers, a pleasure to see. While Nvidia requires the more current drivers for the optimum quality.
Expect to have a very solid FPS, but do note that some cut scenes drop the frame rate, this does not deter from the gameplay. And we highly recommended playing in 1080p for the best possible experience.
