Saints Row: The Third is an action-adventure game developed by Volition for the PlayStation 3, set in the fictional city of Steelport. Players control the Saints as they confront and eliminate three rival gangs—Morningstar, Luchadores, and Deckers—while battling the overarching criminal organization known as The Syndicate. The game features an open-world environment and emphasizes humor and absurdity.
Saints Row: The Third is the first Saints Row game that takes place in the city of Steelport. Much like the first two games, the story revolves around the Saints destroying and absorbing three rival gangs, taking over the city in the process. In Saints Row: The Third, these three gangs are the Morningstar, the Luchadores, and the Deckers. Unlike the first two games, these three gangs are all controlled by a criminal organization known as The Syndicate, which the saints must also deal with.
