Video Game Franchises Most Likely to Fade Away Next
Saints Row
A series that originally started off trying to be GTA, Saints Row has grown and adapted over the years, finding its own quirky niche.
Similar to other titles on this list though, there isn’t really too much the franchise can do from this point that would warrant another game. At least, the series wouldn’t be able to do so without being repetitive.
We’ve already seen signs that Saints Row is struggling to make new content, as Saints Row 4’s story relies heavily on previous occurrences in the series. When done correctly, this works as continuity; but the last installment just seemed like an attempt to support a faltering title with fan service.
On top of all this, it’s important to take into account how poorly the Agents of Mayhem spin-off did as well. While it was somewhat of a different structure, the game made it clear that the gameplay, which was very similar to Saints Row, didn’t hold up anymore and wasn’t very fun.
