The latest trailer showcased chaotic gameplay actions from multiple playable characters – which marks the first appearance of new protagonists not originally in the first trailer – such as Yeti and Scheherazade. It also features the vehicle gameplay and the antagonists from L.E.G.I.O.N., as well as announcing the release date of 18th August 2017.
Agents of Mayhem is considered to be the spiritual sequel of Saints Row series, while also in the same universe. Set after the events of Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell. Players will take control the agents of an organization called M.A.Y.H.E.M with the mission to save the world from threats of terrorist group L.E.G.I.O.N. In Agents of Mayhem, players can control a squad of 3 agents chosen from the roster of 12 different playable characters.
Each character possesses different weapons and skills which give them a unique playstyle. Since the game is set in the Saints Row universe, many symbols from the series are mentioned in the game: from the 3rd Street Saints’ fleur-de-lis logo, to the iconic Ultor Corporation and the return of Persephone Brimstone (Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell).
Agents of Mayhem is set to have a release on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
