On the day of release as the review embargo dropped and more information about the remaster surfaced it was revealed that much of the graphics engine and resources had been recreated or enhanced. Initial reactions to the announced remaster on social media were lukewarm, with some dismissing it as merely being the original game with a few shader filters applied. While the original 2011 game eventually received a Linux port in 2016, as of no such support for the remastered version has been announced.

The game was released for Windows on the Epic Games Store on with an announced release for Steam in 2021.

The version includes all DLCs from the original game with the exception of Team Fortress 2 Masks, Bloodsucker Pack (but this one can be restored), and Unlockable Pack which are not included and cannot be purchased. The remaster was developed by Sperasoft and published by Deep Silver, featuring an entirely new lighting engine with physical-based rendering, HDR rendering, and global illumination, as well as reworked and improved vehicles, completely remade weapons, reworked visual effects, higher resolution textures, improved materials and much more. Saints Row: The Third Remastered is a third-person open world action shooter in the Saints Row series, and a remastered version of the 2011 game Saints Row: The Third.
