Using Lucifer's stolen halo, the pair can use familiar superpowers to explore the underworld – which, despite being completely new, feels strangely like a smaller Steelport with an infernal re-skinning. The centerpiece, however, is Gat Out of Hell, a fun, four- to six-hour single-player or co-op adventure that sees Kinzie and Johnny Gat diving into Hell to rescue the President. It also piles on content, including two short expansions: Enter the Dominatrix, the deliberately unfinished DLC that Saints Row IV grew out of and How the Saints Save Christmas, a cheesy adventure that involves mowing down malevolent gingerbread men in a bid to free Santa from alien captivity.

In these respects, Re-Elected still holds up beautifully. And while its story missions annoyingly strip you of your powers, they compensate with unique and unexpected experiences that range from quasi-2D beat-'em-ups to narrated text adventures. Its weapons are bizarre (and occasionally obscene), its character-customization options are wildly varied, and its map is littered with destructively fun things to do. Its appeal comes more from bounding through its familiar, bland city of Steelport – now with an alien, intentionally glitchy-looking makeover – with upgradable superpowers that make its highly customizable vehicles completely obsolete after just a couple of hours. Then again, Saints Row IV was never notable as a technical marvel. Also, Re-Elected's only new gameplay features are a spate of neat-but-superfluous voice commands – which save you the trouble of using the d-pad to switch powers, or the pause menu to summon AI partners – and the option to use the PS4's touchpad during quick-time events, so there’s no real replay value if you played the original. It's not a huge bump, though, and it's still not quite as good-looking as the PC version was in 2013. Obviously it’s higher resolution, the lighting's a bit nicer, character models are slightly more detailed, and everything moves a little more smoothly as you glide past at high speeds. Visually, Re-Elected offers a small but noticeable improvement over the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of Saints Row IV. It's just as much fun in Saints Row IV: Re-Elected for Xbox One and PlayStation 4, which repackages the old-gen original with all of its DLC and a strangely paced but creative new standalone adventure, Gat Out of Hell.
