I've been reviewing hardware and software, devising testing methodology and handed out buying advice for what seems like forever; I'm currently absorbed by computers and gaming hardware, but previously spent many years concentrating on cameras. I've also volunteered with a cat rescue for over 15 years doing adoptions, designing marketing materials, managing volunteers and, of course, photographing cats.

As we saw in a brief Gamescom debut preview trailer for the eagerly awaited update to the franchise, a reboot of Saint Row shows us a gang of four uses some high-power weaponry to steal a drug drop from...another gang with high-power weaponry. The game is slated for release on Feb. 25 of next year.

It will launch for the PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One and for the PC via the Epic Games Store.

In what star Bryce Charles calls "a fresh approach to Saints Row," four friends heist a drug drop with acrobatic driving -- a car chase including flights across rooftops and a backflip from a motorcycle into the seat of a convertible -- as well meeting rocket launchers with rocket launchers. And the obligatory crap-the-car-stalled moment.

Watch for more information about the game soon.
