Deep Silver And Volition Raise Money For Child's Play With Saints Row IV DLC
Saints Row IV might be a game for mature adults, but developer Volition and publisher Deep Silver are using it to raise money for kids in need. The Child’s Play pack offers in-game items themed after classic toys. All proceeds go to the Child’s Play charity, which raises money to support sick children and their families during hospital stays.
The DLC includes two costumes and one vehicle. The outfits let players dress up as a Digital Dino or Robochimp, and the vehicle is a “retro rocket.”
This pack is available exclusively for the PC, and costs $2.99. For more information on Child's Play, visit the charity’s website. You can also read our review of Saints Row IV.
Our Take
If you’re playing Saints Row IV on PC (and even if you’re done with it and don’t plan on going back), $2.99 isn’t a lot to ask in support of a good cause. Kudos to Deep Silver and Volition on this initiative.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
