Volition’s sequel will launch August 26th with pre-orders already going live for the impatient amongst us. THQ also mention that the official site for the game is now finally open, though most of it is still not functioning at the moment.
They’ll be updating it in the coming weeks, it certainly looks the business - let’s hope the game follows suit.
With the impending release of Grand Theft Auto IV this month, Volition’s own brand of GTA will be under a lot of pressure to deliver quality and some fresh experiences. Early last month Greg Donovan admitted that he doubts the sequel would be bug-free saying ”I don’t think any game is.”
I’m a great fan of GTA and I also really enjoyed Saints Row, a similar but different spin on the chaos of the crime riddled open-world. Fans will be looking forward to the addition of pilot-able aircraft and motorbikes this time around, as well as the ability to pimp your crib.
