If there’s one thing players almost unanimously love about theSaints Rowfranchise, it’s the character creator capable of meeting almost every single creative whim – even if that whim is the Incredible Hulk. ThoughSaints Row’sreboot may have rightly been met with its fair share of controversy and critique over its numerous bugs and glitches, one thing about the game has remained in universal praise: character customization.

Volition knew it had something good on its hands in that regard, and launchedSaints Row’sBoss Factorya few months before the game’s own premiere. It allowed players to preview just how flexible the new character creator could be, even if it lacked the full extent of options present in the final product. From celebrities like Bruce Willis, to comic book characters like the Joker, character creation in theSaints Rowfranchise has always been flexible and rarely disappointing.

TheSaints Rowreboot has pushed the envelope even further in terms of what players could do, as it allowed Reddit user H8DCarnifEX to recreate Bruce Banner’s alter ego in-game thanks to some creative value editing. Given that the Incredible Hulk was made without any explicit use of mods, it lets other players use H8DCarnifEX’s design through the share-code and roam the streets ofSanto Ileso inSaints Rowas the hulking green monstrosity himself.

A huge appeal that theSaints Rowgames have overGrand Theft Autois the ability for players to create their own character past choosing the clothes they can wear, the haircut they can have, or how much in-shape they may be. With vehicle customization sometimes rivaling that of theNeed for Speedfranchise, and weapon customization enjoying similar freedom, it’s very easy for players to makeSaints Rowtheir own.

While rough and unpolished at launch, a few choicefixes made toSaints Row’srebootcould turn it into a worthwhile entry in the franchise. Quality of life additions such as being able to customize the HUD, or implementing a better photo mode by allowing players to manipulate and freeze the surrounding environment.

Volition has a lot of feedback to work with for any potential sequelSaints Rowmay have, but one thing that its players have undoubtedly been happy with under the new game’s direction has been customization. AmidstGrand Theft Auto 6’sleaksconfirming a traditional experience for the franchise and genre, it proves that there is still room forSaints Row’ssatirical, off-beat take.

Saints Rowis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
