In a simultaneous global assault, LEGION has taken control of the nations of the world and the only force left to stop them is MAYHEM. Led by the mysterious and no-nonsense Persephone Brimstone, MAYHEM's elite Super Agents are called to the city of Seoul, South Korea. Led by LEGION Minister Doctor Babylon and his diabolical lieutenants, a nefarious plot is set in motion to build a world-altering device that will grant unrivaled power to the supervillain organization. In order to stop LEGION and take back the world, the Agents of Mayhem will traverse a sprawling urban battlefield from the ground to the rooftops and team up as a super-agent collective to stop LEGION at any cost. Success is far from guaranteed and collateral damage will be substantial, but it's all in a day's work for the Agents. The Agents of MAYHEM (Multinational Agency for Hunting Evil Masterminds) fuse together technology, weaponry and gadgets to create an all-out arsenal of futuristic warfare-and have absolutely no qualms about putting it all to use against their enemies. Featuring an original storyline, trademark over-the-top open-world gameplay, and the look-and-feel of a distinctive superhero cosmos, Agents of Mayhem is a true Volition game. This new IP is a part of the Saints Row universe, sharing certain story elements, symbolism, and design inspiration with the multi-million selling franchise. Building on the unique skill of the AAA studio to continuously surprise, endear, and engage players, Agents of Mayhem represents the culmination of over a decade of open world experience and creativity.

So it's an exclusively single-player open-world action game featuring characters with cool guns, gadgets, and abilities to toy around with. There’s...a lot more to it than that though.

It's definitely in the SR universe, the Ultor Corporation spans many titles, and the little nod at the end to "street gang? hardly..." was amusing. Still... what GAME is it? I'd rather see some gameplay than a cinematic
The trailer made it seem like yet another "Hero Shooter" (which is basically the new MOBA), but then I read about it being exclusively singleplayer. Very strange. Definitely curious to see more of it.
That trailer gave me the impression the game will only have a low budget.

Will probably end up being some coop-focused game.

So is it officially time to call this a dawn of brown age and start of overwatch cartoon age?
... I am old and I don't understand those overwatch battleborn games at all
I do love Saints Row 3 !

With the 'exclusively single-player open-world action game' they have my curiosity , but if the characters and dialogues will be as edgy as the ones shown in the trailer, then I'll have to pass
(I was hoping for a return to the Saints Row 2-ish roots for Volition - my favourite one, shame).
Eh? What makes you think it's first person? Everything about this screams third person like SR/Crackdown
I saw its first person shooter based on open world settings from other magazine, probably they are wrong. Yeah, this is from Voliation so it should be a third person game which make sense.
overwatch is just the current public darling people likes to compare to (also clickbait for the ign article and video).... its just the cartoony graphics style and the fact you have more characters with their own skills and weapon abilities ... thats where overwatch similarity starts and ends
Its singlkeplayer openworld game when inbetween you switch between characters you selected to your squad

These guys had achieved a perfect balance of serious gameplay and craziness, but kept progressively pushing for the latter, till they completely lost control, and with this one it seems that the inevitable happened: they just went full retard.
I was keen enough (though not amazed) when I saw the trailer, considering the Fleur de Lis from the "Saints" and the developers I kinda expected something SR like. This however, is disappointing. Smells like Overwatch cash grab, fuck that and go make Saint's Row 5.
finally got to watch this .. not really sure will definitely be the usual Volition mindless silly fun , but the agents they showed apart from the bow and arrow girl are kinda boing .. hope the other ones will be more interesting
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
