Check out this footage of cancelled Saints Row game on PSP
Saints Row remains one of the biggest names in open world gaming, but before the more recent crazy titles there was one particular project that didn’t go so well.
A Volition staff member happened upon something interesting in the studio’s storage closet recently: the cancelled PSP title Saints Row: Undercover.
Revealed back in 2009 by Swedish metal band Opeth, the game was slated for release in 2010, but was eventually shelved by Volition. The studio and its publisher at the time, THQ, felt it didn’t live up to the Saints Row name.
Volition’s associate video editor Josh Stinson had no idea the game even existed until he happened upon the project stored on a old PSP dev kit.
“It was supposed to be a Saints Row 2 port directly to the PSP,” said video producer Alexander Mejia. “They realized it wouldn’t work, so then they started making [it] its own game.”
No new Saints Row games announced, but you can still pick up Gat out of Hell which was released last year on PC, PS4/3 and Xbox One/360
