THQ Confirms Development of Saints Row: The Third - Enter The Dominatrix
Freaking super powers.
Published: May 4, 2012
Saints Row: The Third was more fun than a barrel of monkeys. Personally I got the platinum trophy and loved just about every moment. You can also check out our official review and see just how much Sam loved the game. So more of a good thing is always welcomed around these parts.
Originally "Enter The Dominatrix" was an April Fool's gag. Well, now it's a standalone expansion set to release this fall. It will retail for $29.99 and picks up following the events of the vanilla game. Alien warlord Zinyak has prepared his armada for an invasion of Earth and the only ones badass enough to take him on are the Third Street Saints. After being captured all of the leaders of the TSS are tossed into a virtual simulation, thus the "Matrix" in "Dominatrix." It also adds the single most requested feature in the game: super powers.
"Faster than a speeding cyber jetbike, more powerful than a roided-out Luchadore, able to leap flying aircraft carriers in a single bound... That's the power you'll find inside the Dominatrix. Use it for good. Use it for evil. Use it for whatever you want. As always in Saints Row, it's up to you," said Danny Bilson, Executive Vice President, Core Game Production, THQ Inc. "With a franchise with more than 11 million units shipped globally, it's incredibly gratifying to have the flexibility to give Saints Row fans the features they want most."
He later added, "Freaking super powers."
THQ promises more information this summer and we're all giddy with anticipation. This is a game that has had a laundry list of DLC, but this looks like the biggest and best addition yet. Check back for more details in the coming months.
