Our Site Score

90/100

Bringing Saints Row: The Third to iOS is a massive triumph for mobile gaming. Feral Interactive has once again proven their wizardry by delivering a full, uncompromised AAA open-world crime saga right onto modern iPhones and iPads. The mayhem of Steelport translates surprisingly well to mobile, whether you're causing traffic pile-ups during Insurance Fraud or flying aerial strikes over rival gang headquarters.

While hardware demands are high and high-speed driving can occasionally cause slight performance hiccups on older chips, modern devices run the game smoothly with crisp visuals and responsive controller support. Having the complete DLC package bundled alongside seamless online co-op makes this port an essential download for fans of sandbox action games.

Dinsun Review

Saints Row: The Third remains one of the most delightfully unhinged open-world sandboxes ever crafted. Throwing people through storefronts while wearing ridiculous costumes never stops being entertaining. Seeing this full console experience squeezed onto iOS is an engineering marvel that deserves respect from anyone who understands software architecture.

That said, as a conservative reviewer who values tight performance, I can't overlook the rough edges. Mobile touch controls are awkward for precision gunfights, meaning you really want a physical controller paired up. Furthermore, hardware thermal throttling and frame drops during intense vehicular chaos remind you that you're pushing mobile hardware to its absolute limit. It's a blast if you set expectations accordingly, but it's an imperfect way to experience an aging classic.

From scrappy street gang to their own energy drinks, clothing lines and international brand recognition, The Third Street Saints have come a long way. Now their sights are set on Steelport: a once-proud metropolis brought low by a trifecta of gangs known as the Syndicate.

Tailored to touchscreen and optimised for iOS, Saints Row: The Third Remastered is an open world of shameless excess in the palm of your hand.

YOUR CITY, YOUR RULES

Tear up the streets with tanks and hover bikes, build a portfolio of cribs and “legit” businesses, and take Steelport from the Syndicate district-by-district.

CRUSH THE COMPETITION

Win the arms race against the gun-running Morningstar, lay the smackdown on the Luchadores, and delete the Decker cyber-criminals across 47 madcap missions.

ACTION ON EVERY CORNER

Earn cash and respect by base-jumping, boosting cars, and becoming a gravity-defying insurance fraudster.

WEAPONS OF CRASS DESTRUCTION

Defeating your enemies is good. Humiliating them is so much better! Beat rivals into submission with outrageous weapons, and reinvent the drive-by with human cannonball cars and flamethrowing Genkimobiles.

IT’S IN YOUR HANDS!

The full AAA experience on the go, with customisable touchscreen controls, plus support for gamepads and mouse & keyboard.

OVER-THE-TOP CO-OP

Steelport is even more fun with homies — play the entire game online with a friend.

THE FULL PACKAGE

Saints Row: The Third Remastered comes complete with all its DLC, from Professor Genki’s murderous Genkibowl VII, sci-fi stardom in Gangstas in Space, and even weirder science in The Trouble With Clones. Also in the mix are over 30 more weapons, vehicles, and costumes.
