The official Saints Row Facebook page has revealed that Saints Row IV in Australia will have restricted multiplayer.
Here’s what was announced over the weekend:
While we are very proud of all our different missions, we do feel that Saints Row IV on the whole remains largely the same without this single optional mission, and we also feel that you deserve to know what you are getting in Australia. Due to the changes we were forced to make, this version is different than the version rated by rating boards like the ESRB, USK, and PEGI, which is why it will be incompatible with those versions in co-op.
What this basically means is that Australians can only play online co-op with other Australians in Saints Row IV. This is mainly because the Australian version is being treated as a “different” game.
Are you an Australian and sad you cannot play with other players around the world in Saints Row IV?
