Saints Row The Third Walkthrough

Saints Row 3 may sound similar to GTA but Volition has added its own twists to make it a unique piece in the sandbox genre. Saints now have moved to the city of Steelport and they want to have revenge from their rivals, “The Syndicates”.

The city is controlled by three groups and to take over the rule, gang war will break out. The decisions you make will affect the storyline and the ending of the game. There are multiple ways to complete a mission and the sequence can vary depending upon your choices.

At many points in the game you will find the acts ridiculously absurd yet amusing. The weapons, the stunts and not to forget the celebrity voices passing on some hilarious comments will keep you busy without losing the interest.

And if you are stuck somewhere and don’t know what to do then you can read the following walkthrough.

When Good Heists Go Bad
You will jump into the action shortly as the gang is going to rob a bank. Yes, the reason is stupid but that’s how the Saints roll. The simple robbery plan will into a massive gun fight. The syndicates will have guns.

After grabbing some cover, it’s time to shoot some heads. You can try to be James Bond here as you will have multiple weapons along with infinite ammo. After you eliminate the enemies at the lower floor, it’s time to blow up the bank’s vault.

Head upstairs and plant the bomb. You will have to fight with more enemies, thanks to one of your own acquaintances. Shoot them all till the chopper arrives. Things are going to be messy from here on. Shoot anything that comes in your way but sadly, that won’t do it for you escape.

I am Free – Free Falling
Time to meet the boss of the Syndicates. When the deal is cancelled, you will have to make your way out of the plane. And it’s a thriller. First, there will be a fist fight some enemies in the next room. A couple of well placed punches will be sufficient to bring down each enemy.

Then clear the cargo section (you can use guns here) and then it’s time for a free fall. While falling, you need to dodge the objects. If you shoot the cars, boxes might move away so that can help. To make things more exciting, enemy parachutes will follow you.

You are not going to greet them ofcourse so shoot them before they get you. When you are asked to flip, flip over pressing the concerned button. After another heroic act through the plane, the same situation starts again. Deal with more enemies and dodge the falling objects till you hit land.

We’re Going to Need Guns
Ofcourse we need guns. There would be no Saints Row 3 without guns. Take the ride to the stores and get yourself loaded. Your next destination is the guards’ armory. When you reach there, quickly enter the armored vehicle as there are going to be a lot of bad guys lurking around.

Shoot them all with the machine gun (you can take the vehicle inside if you want). After you find the weapon cache, more of them will spawn. This time, you also have some friends in the air to pick you up. But you will have to clear the area first. Go there and use the UAV drone thingy to destroy targets from the above. Watch out for those tanks and take them out as quickly as you can.
Once you are in the chopper, the remaining task is relatively easy.

All you need to do is shoot the enemy choppers using your machine gun. Don’t let them destroy the bomb and you will be fine. The mission will conclude with a cutscene.

Steelport, Here I Am
After meeting pierce, follow the map to get to the garage and get your car fixed and upgraded. There are multiple options to choose from so take your time. Next head to the planet saints and buy some cloths.
You will encounter a brute in here. He is like a running bull so make sure that you dodge his attacks. He will crush you if you get too close to him. Keep a safe distance and shoot his head for more damage.

After the brute has been take care of (finish him off quickly when he goes down on his kness), head back to the safe house.
While you are driving in Saints Row 3, there will be many rides where opposite gang members might attack you. You can either choose to counter attack or run away. Both can work well.

Party Time
It’s time for you to get a palace for your crew. Jump off the chopper and use the parachute to steer to the roof. Head to the lieutenant and intimidate him to tell you the code. The mess starts here – plenty of ladies and few men to shoot. While you are fighting with the Syndicates, a chopper will get away.

You need to follow him. The chopper drive is a bit tricky but once you are familiarized with the controls, you can do well. Make sure that you keep it and don’t lose the target. After landing, get to the man and make spill the truth. He will tell you that it’s the red wire. The penthouse will be yours.

Guardian Angel
After calling Pierce, you will be in a chopper with a rocket launcher in your hand. You need cover Pierce down there. Keep an eye on his health while you shoot enemy cars. Just shoot them before they can reach Pierce.

After he leaves his car, you will equip a sniper rifle. Zoom it and shoot the targets below before they can harm your friend. Again, don’t be too lazy in picking target or you may lose your friend.

Trafficking
Call Pierce and he will tell you that he plans to sell some items. Ride with him in the car to the first buyer. Opponent gang will attack. Shoot them all. When you get to the second buyer, there will be more trouble and deal will go wrong. Get rid of the buyer and get back into the car before the chopper arrives.

You can also opt to take the chopper first but that will take some time. Get back to your house to conclude the mission.

Take Over the City
It’s to purchase some structures in the city. The regular; call pierce and follow the marker to Friendly fire and purchase it for $1. After you collect the dolls behind the building, head towards the estates. To find more dolls in the city, you can refer to our dolls location guide. Shoot any enemies you find there and after purchasing the estates, move to the gang operation.

There are going to be plenty of enemies so shoot them fast. You need to repeat the same exercise for the second gang operations. After killing everyone, head back to the Friendly fire you purchased earlier and enter to lose your notoriety level. That’s it for this mission.

We’ve Only Just Begun
There is nothing big to by worried about. After calling Pierce, all you need to do is reach marker on the map and then watch the cutscene.

Hit the Powder Room
It’s not a dance bar rather a warehouse you need to visit. After you get there, head inside the structure through the back door and start shooting enemies. Shaundi and Pierce will help you. The brute is here with a mini gun. He is a real headache.

Shoot him fast before he takes out you or one of your teammates. Like always, target the head to kill him fast.
Head to the office and while Shaundi hack the computer, you need to provide her the covering support. There will be plenty of enemies running your way. Some snipers too may be. So shoot them hard.

If you are not getting a clear view, step up a bit and take the fight to them by moving forward. Yes, just like James Bond. When the computer is hacked, you are done with the mission.

The Belgian Problem
Head to the Saints HQ and then take your gang to Syn Tower. You will encounter enemies at the basement. Take them out and plant the bomb on the van. Time to clear the building from any other enemies. Watch out for the brutes though, they can be troublesome. Whenever you see one, shoot him first and then the rest of the goons.

The father of all these clones (the brutes i meant) will be at your side now as you free him. He will take care of rest of the brutes for the next couple of sections.

After eliminating enemies in the building (a typical Saints Row 3 style shooting encounter), head back to the basement where you will have two options now, either destroy the building. I destroyed it but the choice is yours.

Return to the Steeport
You might have take care of the Syndicates’ boss, but the war has just begun. The bridge will be destroyed and after the cutscene, head out to free Kinzie. Your next stop is the BDSM club. Inquire the Patron first and then head upstairs to find the manager.

After knocking a couple of doors you will find him. Intimidate him to tell you where Zimos is kept. Head down further to find him. You will take a rid with Zimos as your pet? May be. Anyways, you are saving him so he won’t mind much. You will be followed by enemy carts so shoot them while you get away.

Next destination is Angel. You need to save him. This section is going to be tough as there will be multiple flame throwing brutes in there. Your fellow brute will arrive to help you but since there will be multiple clones, you should try to remove them as quickly as possible. Remember that you have 30 seconds to revive your friend if he is down so don’t be late. Return to Steelport and enjoy the cutscene.

Trojan Whores
Pierce has started a party at Penthouse. Shaundi is furious as she calls you. During the cutscene, you will find the whores are there to kill you. The real party begins now. You need to clear the area first with any armed enemies.

Then get a sniper rifle and remove the snipers on the rooftops. After the snipers have been cleared, you need to head down to the basement to restore power. Get back up now and grab the rocket launcher. Why you need it? Well, there are a some enemy choppers lurking around. After you have taken care of everyone, a cutscene will play to conclude the mission.

Snatch
It’s a search and rescue mission. Head to Zimos (take any air ride) and then follow the points marked on the map. Kill the Mroningstars and take back the hos to the designated spots. You need 4 of them. Beware of the timer though as you have 5 minutes to complete the job.

Trafficking
Call Zimos again to start the mission. Zimos will drive you to the deal. The first buyer will try to run. Take her out and rest of the enemies attacking. The next buyer is an undercover police officer. First, protect both and then take out the officer.

You are not done yet as there is still a third place to visit. This time too, protect the buyer and the dealer. On your way back home, police cares will pursue. You need to destroy them to stay safe. Reach the destination to complete the job.

Escort
There is not shooting in it but can get tricky if you don’t fulfill the requirements. Keep an eye on the footage and pleasure meter. The footage meter increases whenever a camera van comes nearby making the client uncomfortable. Do what the client wants and once the pleasure meter is full, your job is done.

Pimps up, Hos Down
Call Zimos yet again for another job. After learning about the STAG initiative, get into the Boogie bus. Opps! you will wake up naked. Head to the collection room to shut down the alarms first and then fight your way to the central security room.

After disabling the security panel, eliminate all the Morningstar members. Head to the garage next and fight a brute with a minigun there. After that, you can exit the garage to conclude the mission.

The Ho Boat
You will get to know that the Morningstar shipment of girls is coming. Head to the docks. You need to free the girls from the containers. There are four containers having these girls. Zimos will take care of the free girls while you focus on enemy resistance.

It will be better that you grab a rocket launcher as you will face a couple of brutes on board. After the girls are free, get up there and grab that machine gun and deal with the incoming boats and choppers. After you have dealt with all of them, Pierce will bring in the chopper. Your job is not over yet as you still need to defend the girls chopper from the enemy. You have the target launcher. Shoot the enemy boats and choppers to keep the girls safe.

After you have landed, you will be given a choice, either sell back the girls to Morningstar or let Zimos have the girls and enjoy the hourly profit. The choice is yours.

Gang Bang
Call Oleg and he will warn you about Voila. You need to meet her with Oleg. The STAG squad will reach there to join the party. You will be held inside a building. Get to the rooftop and start shooting the enemies while she fixes the elevator.

After Oleg jumps onto the plane, the elevator will start working. Head down there and outside, there is a hell waiting for you. Don’t even think to fight. You only have only one option, that is to grab a vehicle and run away. You will be followed madly and most probably you won’t make it in the first run. If that happens, i will suggest that you try the police car for your escape which is faster than other armed vehicles.

Get to the Penthouse and then enjoy the cutscene.

Convoy Decoy
After STAG is on the move, you will have to leave the Penthouse. Your job for most of this mission will be to divert STAG from the convoy which also means that your ass will be on fire. Take a Jet and fly in the air. First clear the bridge for the convoy down there.

Shooting the vehicles individually is not going to help that much. Use the secondary fire mode to charge blasts together and destroy the enemy vehicles. Keep an eye on the enemy aircrafts that will try to hit you while you are busy destroying the targets down there.

When your character says that its time to get a new plane, it means that you should jump off the plane soon or you won’t have a chance later on as it will be destroyed. If you jump before, you can parachute down to the ground and grab another vehicle or may be a tank.

Destroy the two marked bases on your map and then provide cover to Oleg. After bringing down some of the choppers attacking wildly, a cutscene will play concluding the mission.

Nyteblade’s Return
Call Pierce to initiate this mission. After dressing like actors, you should go get Josh from the building he is shooting (acting) in. You won’t have problem while entering but once you get Josh, there will be plenty of guards in your way and the basement.

Clear the first floor and then use the elevator to get down to the second one. As you leave the elevator, there will be plenty of STAG members waiting to shoot you. That’s the tricky part in this mission. If you switch to your pistol (SMG is not really helping), you can take them out fast. Aim for the head. Eliminate the enemies and run for the elevator down there.

Get Josh in the car and reach the Penthouse to complete this mission.

STAG Party
Give Pierce a call to start the party (ironically). It’s a long mission so get yourself ready. First off, burn the STAG banners using the Molotovs. You don’t need to go inside. Just throw them to burn the two banners from outside. Remove any minor resistance you face there.

Head back to the Penthouse and it’s time to defend the stronghold. How you do that? You need to follow the instructions. You will start off by shooting the bomb cars. Then head to Viola to provide her cover. There is a rocket launcher which is quite useful lying in front of the elevator.

Use it to take out heavy vehicles like tanks. Also take care of the snipers when told. After sometime, when you have destroyed sufficient tanks, Pierce will arrive with a special weapon. You should defend him using the launchers. I will recommend that you shoot the tank from above before getting down. Take the weapon and head back to the HQ quickly.

You can now use the laser targeted air strikes to destroy the enemy vehicles. Some enemy Jets will also join in the party. You can take care of them with a single launch shot. Then, some STAG soldiers will enter the building. Shoot them off and then move to meet Shaundi. The commander offers you a deal, either way he is going to ask his men to shoot you so it doesn’t matter which option you choose.

Quickly jump off the building to complete the hectic mission.

LIVE! With Killbane
Meet Kinzie and she will show you a footage. You need to stop Killbane. First drive to the chopper and when you get control of that bird, 15 minute timer will start. Which means that you can’t waste too much time. Your first task is to plant the transmitters on two towers. Land the chopper and plant them.

The deckers won’t make it easy for you. So make sure that you clear the area before you plant. Get back to the chopper and you will have to follow a van now. Adjust your height so that the meter above your screen fills (which means the tracking is complete) completely. Keep the chopper near the van to make it fill faster.

After you have the location, head straight to that building to settle the score with Killbane. There will be plenty of Deckers near the reporter. Clear the area fast (watch out for those speedy chicks) and head back to the chopper to chase Killbane’s car. The mission will conclude with the fall of the chopper.

Learning Computer
Meet Kinzie at her hideout. Pierce will be there too. She will then ask you to get a computer for her which is in STAG’s PR office. Deckers also want that computer so there will be a firefight throughout the rest of the mission. Eliminate both Deckers and STAG soldiers from the building. When you reach the basement, you can use the tank but don’t shoot the vehicle carrying the computer.

You should only shoot its wheels. After you have managed to destroy all 4 wheels of the vehicle, you can bring it back to Kinzie.

Insurance Fraud
Meet Angel at his gym. He will ask you to do a real crazy job. What you need to do is take as much damage as you can without dying. Once the adrenaline bar fills, you gain the points. You need to get to 70,000 mark. Yes, that’s possible. Just keep an eye on the incoming cars and get yourself hit by them hard. If it’s a police car then you will have plenty of bonus.

Trail Blazing
How’s your driving when you vehicle is on fire? Angel will ask you to race through 6 checkpoints to the end. Watch out for the timer and make sure that you get there in time. I got it in the last second!

Escort
This time, there is a tiger in your car. What you need to do is drive the car as fast as you can keeping off the animal capturing vehicles. The two bars up there are your main concern. Don’t let the blue bar fill up. If it does, do some drifting to cool down the animal. The pink bar will be filled slowly if you drive the car fast enough to stay away from those vans. Your mission will be completed once you have filled the pink bar.

Mayhem
Kinzie will give ask you for another weird job. You need to get 90,000 points by destroying enemy vehicles as by killing enemies only, you won’t get it. Make sure that you have some explosive weapons or better an explosive vehicle (like a tank) with you if you want to reach that big amount. The mission will conclude when you have earned the designated amount of points in the given time.

Angel Guardian
Kinzie needs your help. She has been spotted by the Deckers. Your job will be to provide support so that she can get away – First with the sniper and then with the rocket launcher. While you shoot the launchers, be careful as the explosion caused can affect her car. Obviously, you need to keep her alive. Do it, and the mission will conclude.

Heli Help
Kinzie this time wants you to escort her again from air so that she can hack into Deckers’ terminals. This will stop them tracking Kinzie. It’s more or like your previous job but this time, you will be driving the chopper as well as shooting the launchers. Make sure that Kinzie survives and your mission will end well.

Stop All the Downloading
You need the chair. Firs escort Kinzie so that she can hack all three terminals and then enter the explored site to get the chair. To turn off the system, you need to power off 4 routers. The place will be crawling with deckers so don’t be too hasty.

After you have turned off the 4 routers, disable the final link to complete the mission.

Http://deckers.die
Time to play some games. Head to Kinzie’s and sit on the chair. You will enter a matrix like world where you need to defeat that cyberpunk. Don’t worry, you won’t remain a toilet for long and get a gun. Shoot any enemies you find in your way. If enemies are more in number, try shooting your launcher in short bursts than charging it up. When those flash cyber avatars arrive, you should try to take them out with one well placed charged shot.

Hack the firewall and then you need to disable the antivirus. You will enter into another puzzle where you need to answer some questions. First choose the torch and then choose keep walking twice. At the end select look at the lamb and the final option should be to kill the lamb.

Keep on moving, shooting your way through different virtual deckers. Matt will make things difficult for you but you need to keep your focus. Next up is your encounter with Miller. He is big and intimidating. You should keep moving and dodge his attacks using jump and sprint. When the get the chance, go close to him to do the damage. After some beating, Kinzie will get an equivalent avatar for you. You can take the fight back to him.

Hit him hard till he gives in. There will be a lot of button mashing sequence through out this fight so keep your eyes on the screen to catch them. After you have defeated Miller, select the offer and the mission will end.

My Name is Cyrus Temple
Shaundi is kidnapped by STAG and you need to free her. The idea is that you will play the role of Commander Cyrus’ impostor and Viola and Pierce as your prisoners. Drive safely to the chopper. Then take the chopper to the deck. You will get in undetected but soon your cover will be blown up.

It’s time for a big gunfight. Use your near charge launcher that works effectively to deal with multiple enemies. You need to free all three of your friends. Do use that tank down the hall. When you have freed your friends, it’s time to blow up the ship and get away.

Make your way through plenty of STAG soldiers and get to the control panel. Destroy it and you will have 2 minutes to escape the ship. Run as fast as you can. There will a few STAGS but they won’t be a big problem for you. A cutscene will play at the end of the mission.

Air Steelport
Call Kinzie to start this mission. Since STAG is all over and city is under Martial law, don’t expect the road trips as friendly as before. If you want to save time, run whenever you are spotted by the STAG. Drive to the Airport and another series of crazy stunts.

He made James Bond look dull, he really did. Anyways, when you are inside the plane, use the explosives in the trunks to open the blocked passage. You will notice that the AI level of STAG has been raised a bit and they are harder to kill. When you blow the second door, it will actually blow the whole cockpit.

The plane is going down and you will jump off the plane. Jump in a “TANK”. Yes, tank. This is not it, enemy tanks and troopers will attack you during your fall. You will soon leave the tank and then enter another one. This time you will reach the ground. Zombies inbound! The mission will conclude when the tank gets started.

A Remote Chance
Call Viola to Start the mission. This time, you need to spoil Killbane’s popularity in the crowd. You will be sitting in the chopper and doing all sort of dirty stuff by hacking into the electronic vehicles used by the Luchadors. Complete the required tasks to complete the mission. It’s like playing game in a game which is not the first time in the game.

Zombie Attack
Call Viola again to initiate this mission. Head to meet the Mayor. He will tell you about the zombie problem. You like zombies? You better do as it’s going to be messy in there. The military charge you acquired earlier in the plane will be your only hope.

Use small burst or fully charged attacks depending upon the requirement. You will have to charge it completely and then release if you want to slaughter zombies. They can attack you from anywhere so keep an eye on the mini map to check their attack direction. When they catch you, mash the on-screen button to free yourself.

Your goal is to throw three containers into the water. How you do that? Use the charge launcher you are using to push them into water. After throwing the first container, Viola will ask for your help. Get to her and then push the second container. After you push the third container into the water, you need to get to the truck. You will have two options, either throw it too in the water or escape with it. The choice is yours. A cutscene will play to conclude the mission.

3 Count Down Beat
Call Angel to start this mission. Move to 3 Count and after the cutscene, start destructive activity to fill the meter above. You need to find the mask and the manager knows the location. Grab him when he arrives and make him speaking.

He will tell you that the mask is in a vault behind the building. Get the mask. Now, you need to destroy 6 Killbane’s statues in the building. Three are on the bottom floor while 3 are on the next floor. Luchadors should be any real trouble for you but watch out for those brutes. They can be troublesome specially when they have flame throwers with them.

Eliminate them and a cutscene will play which will also conclude the mission.

Murderbrawl XXXI
Time to teach Killbane a lesson. Call Angel and head to the designated place. Angel will enter the ring and you need to defend it from the Luchadors. Soon, Angel will be thrown out of the ring. He can’t get back in. Defend him using the chainsaw and then enter the ring yourself.

Attack him (there will be some button mashing sections too) and throw him out of the ring. He will come back. You will have to do it 2 more times to win the fight. In between, Luchadors will also attack so you will have quite a busy section.

After you have defeated Killbane, he will beg you to not to take off his mask. You have two options here, either leave him or remove the mask. I wanted revenge, so i removed it. You can choose the other option.

Three Way
Your ending will vary depending upon the decision you take in this mission. After initiating the mission, you will find the city in distress. There are three points you need to visit. You can go there in any order but logically, you should go to the nearest location first. Pierce and the big giant will accompany you.

At all three designated points of the map, you will have to fight, fight and fight. There will be plenty of opposition Gang members along with STAG soldiers and vehicles entering the area. If you have some upgrades like calling a tank or a chopper or any other heavy vehicle then this is the right time to call in the favor. When the enemy tank arrives, you should take it out quickly using the explosives.

Pierce can present your problems as he won’t be able to defend against the tank fire. So make sure that you revive him before the time runs out. After clearing all three areas, you need to make a choice, either go save Shaundi or Kill Kilbane. You can’t let your fellows die? Can you? I decided to save Shaundi.

Head to the plaza and deal with any resistance in your way while you through away the explosive barrels. When you get to the rooftop, you will your mates being held hostage. You can use the smoke bombs to distract the person and then shoot. Make sure that you don’t shoot Shaundi in the process. Also wathcout for the incoming gets. Shoot them first or they can be troublesome.

After saving Shaundi, the mission will conclude. Is the ending? No, There is more to come.

Gangstas in Space
Time to get rid of Killbane now. Interestingly, he has taken refuge on Mars. So, you will be on Mars for the final mission. Make your way through the enemy forces (don’t worry about the falling teammates, just keep moving) and disable the force fields.

You will ultimately reach Killbane. He is armored but there is a way to deal with it. You can see that there are are pointed rocks above you. All you need to do is lure Killbane under those structures and shoot them in such a way that they strike the opponent. His health will start decreasing and soon you will get rid of him. Try to maintain a safe distance or he will grab you and then the button meshing sequence will start.

The mission and the main stroyline will conclude with his death but you can still explore the city for other side activities you want to perform or try other options for different endings.
