Saints Row Finds Second Life on PS Plus After Rocky Launch, Demonstrating Power of Subscriptions to Revive Games

Saints Row (2022) flopped at launch with critics and fans. The studio behind it was shut down.

Saints Row became the 4th most played PS game in Sept thanks to being free on PS Plus.

Putting games on subscription services can bring failed/older games back to life.

This shows how services like PS Plus give AAA games a 2nd chance with audiences.

Similarly, Gotham Knights was just added to Xbox Game Pass.
