More than half a decade after launch, Saints Row 4 will be getting an update on PC. Consolidating the multiple versions of the game into one, this free upgrade gives all users access to Saints Row 4 Re-Elected. Aside from bundling all DLCs into one package, the developers have also enabled crossplay for PC users. This allows players to partake in co-op activities with users who purchased the game from other storefronts.
Here are all the details.

While PC users will be getting the upgrade on December 8, a release date for Linux users hasn’t been specified. The blog post vaguely mentions that Linux users will receive the update “later.”
