That excerpt reads as follows:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>\u201cIn all honesty, we underestimated the impact COVID would have on our schedule, although everyone adapted very quickly to the working from home arrangement and continued to be incredibly productive.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>However, due to the size and scope of our new Saints Row, it\u2019s become apparent that to create the best game possible, we need to give our team longer to perfect their craft.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>Boone also mentioned\u00a0how this upcoming version of Saints Row will be the biggest, most ambitious story in the series and so the team needs a chunky amount of time to realize their exciting goals.

The team just need more time to do our vision justice; we\u2019re doing some fine tuning and there won\u2019t be much change in the game outside of overall quality and polish.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>Saints Row takes place in the city of Santo Illeso as you and your underdog crew of deviants hustle your way to the top while keeping law enforcement and other criminal factions at bay.
