A comparison video which shows off the PS4 visual improvements in Saints Row IV Re-Elected over the PC version of Saints Row IV.
Remember this year's Saints Row(opens in new tab)? Volition would probably prefer that you didn't, which might go some way to explaining why the studio recently decided to upgrade everyone's copy of Saints Row 4(opens in new tab) to its full-fat Re-elected Edition, containing all the game's story and cosmetic DLC and even introducing cross-play between Steam, Epic, and GOG versions of the game.
Unfortunately, that upgrade seems to have backfired, and players now report a myriad of bugs with their new version of SR4. Both the Saints Row Steam forums(opens in new tab) and subreddit(opens in new tab) are filled with players complaining of broken saves, crashes, and mods failing to function. It's also received a few hundred negative Steam reviews(opens in new tab) since the update. If it's succeeded in washing the taste of Saints Row (2022) out of players' mouths, it's only because it tastes even worse.
I wonder if Volition's getting reorged under Gearbox impacted the quality of their release.
Starting today, Saints Row IV Re-Elected and Wildcat Gun Machine are free at Epic Games Store. The free game offers run until December 15.
Volition writes, "We are pleased to let you know that on December 8th we will be upgrading all copies of Saints Row IV to Saints Row IV: Re-Elected. Plus PC crossplay for Steam, Epic & GOG."
The PS4 version runs at 60 on PS5 if you go into settings and it's either an uncap frame rate option or it's a Vsync option you need to toggle.
It does...Do you just spew whatever comes into your little brain without a modicum of research?
Weird choice why all of a sudden do we get this change?
Also I'm not a fan of them removing the original game code from my library when I actually brought that game why not just give access to both versions I know the changes are minor at best but there are changes still
Where did they say that? Are you just making a stuff up?
Nothing in that post indicates they are taking away your ability to play the original. And that being said why would you WANT to play the original if you have the remaster? All the changes improve the game.
From the article direct copy and paste
All other versions and separate DLC will be removed from sale as of December 8th and will no longer be useable. All of your saves and achievements will be moved over so you can still play as you always have. Mods should not be affected.
I believe in preservation why remove the original game theres plenty of precedent that you can have both versions even if it's minor changes
@Profchaos
Removed from SALE. If you have it, then you have it. Add in piracy and the original is not going anywhere.
1:20 look at the lead characters butt.. (feel wrong for pointing that are out..) PS4 has a butt that looks like its out of virtua fighter its pointed and not rounded like on PC. Also doesn't say PC settings used but after playing on PC I would say high.
I'm playing this right now. Pc to my 42in tv on ultra with a 360 controller. Looks like the ps4 isn't to far off. Either way a fun game.
Good to see they have made improvements (although they have had a year to implement them in so they should of been expected), thinking of buying this on PC though as this weekend Steam have a great deal on the whole PC SR franchise:

PS4 version looks to be about the same as PC on Ultra. Not that it's saying much since you could play SR4 on Ultra on even cheap GPU's, but the game looks great either way.
Looks the same to me. So the PS4 can run last gen games at 1080p/60fps. Current gen at 1080p/30fps. Pretty disappointing from 'The world's most powerful console'.
