7 Games Like Sunset Overdrive If You’re Looking for Something Similar

Saints Row IV

Arguably the most fun part of Sunset Overdrive is its over-the-top style. Whether it is the story, gameplay, or guns, everything about the game is wacky and entertaining. 

While it may have set off to try and copy GTA at the outset of the series, Saints Row features that exact same entertaining wackiness. 

In the fourth installment in the series, that statement couldn’t ring more true, as the leader of the Third Street Saints is now the leader of the free world. One day though, everyone is abducted by aliens and transported to a simulation of Steelport. 

In this simulation, the already exaggerated action and gameplay is even crazier, as the main character and his allies are equipped with superhero-like powers and weapons.

This long list of powers and weapons is delightful enough of its own accord but gets even better when you can use them on aliens in weird missions. It isn’t every day you’ll see an alien dancing to a dubstep gun in a simulation, now is it?
