Saints Row Gameplay Trailer News: Run the country as you see fit as the President of the United States in virtual Steelport on Xbox 360 and PS3.

Saints Row 4 will hit the Xbox 360 and PS3 later this year and Deep Silver has recently released a new video walkthrough to show off what you can expect in August. Senior Producer Jim Boone from Volition will lead you through the urban chaos of virtual Steelport. In Saints Row 4 now only will you greet your citizens as President of the USA with friend...punches, but you'll also have some mind-boggling weapons at your disposal. You can, for example, make your people dance to the funky beats of your Dubstep Gun and literally kill them with music. Additionally, weapons can now be upgraded and this time you will be also able to change their looks.

In Saints Row 4, the head honcho of the Saints has been elected to the Presidency of the United States. But the Saints are just getting started. Now the larger-than-life insanity of the Saints series gets a new twist with a catastrophic alien invasion, and the aliens have transported the Saints to a bizarro-Steelport simulation. Wield gargantuan superpowers and fight to free humanity from alien granddaddy Zinyak's mental grasp. Escape the simulation that's trapped the Saints crew, or die trying. Saints Row 4 lets players delve into an arsenal of alien weaponry and technology that will turn each Saint into an ultimate entity of destruction. Utilize out-of-this-world superpowers to fight all the way to the top. With intensified action and enhanced customization, players can use their newfound superpowers and leap over buildings, outrun the fastest sports cars, or send enemies flying with telekinesis in the greatest, most insane installment of Saints Row yet.

Take a look at the new Saints Row 4 trailer below and tell us what you think. Will you pick up this title on August 20 when it hits North America or on August 23 when it hits Europe? Will you pick Saints Row 4 up for the Xbox 360, PS3 or PC?
