Morpheus Eat Your Heart Out, Saints Row 3 is Taking Players Into The Dominatrix

Pop Quiz...

What does 'Saints Row The Third' and 'The Matrix' have in common? Nothing...is what I would have said yesterday but today is a very different story. 

Fans of the Saints Row series are in for a treat as THQ and Volition have officially announced a pretty large expansion coming Saints Row The Third. That's right, I said expansion not DLC.

The cleverly titled expansion, 'Enter The Dominatrix' will pick up right where the game ended and will feature a new chapter to the Saints Row story and some of the most requested gameplay features including...brace yourself for this one...SUPER POWERS!

Capitals, bold font and an exclamation mark...it's that intense.

Faster than a speeding cyber jetbike, more powerful than a roided-out Luchadore, able to leap flying aircraft carriers in a single bound… That's the power you'll find inside the Dominatrix. Use it for good. Use it for evil. Use it for whatever you want. As always in Saints Row, it's up to you -Danny Bilson (Executive VP, THQ Inc.)

...and here's the full description to wash down that delicious quote:

Saints Row: The Third – Enter the Dominatrix picks up immediately following the events of Saints Row: The Third. For centuries, alien warlord Zinyak has eyed Earth and its precious natural resources and females with a watchful eye. As he prepares an armada for invasion, he has only one worry: the Third Street Saints.

Once a simple street gang from Stilwater, the Saints have evolved into a global empire, replete with bombastic TV advertising and tasteful consumer products, the kind of TV advertising and consumer products that would give any alien warlord pause. Clearly, the Saints are the biggest badasses on Earth.

Now, in order to prepare his forces for domination, Zinyak captures the leader of the Saints and imprisons him in an elaborate virtual reality simulation. This simulation program looks and feels like Steelport, but it is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth. Here, you are a slave. Welcome… to the Dominatrix.

The exact release date is still unknown but 'Enter The Dominatrix' will be available sometime in the fall for $29.99 even for those of us who bought the season pass...keep in mind, it's an expansion, not DLC.
