Deep Silver and Volition Release the Saints Row Boss Factory, Powered by AccelByte

Last month, Deep Silver and Volition released the Saints Row Boss Factory, a free character creator for the upcoming Saints Row reboot that gives fans the opportunity to play with the series’ best ever customization suite and create their perfect Boss before the game releases on August 23rd. The Boss Factory even allows players to share their creations with the world, and browse and download other players’ creations thanks to advanced sharing tools and game-to-web integration powered by AccelByte.

UGC and AccelByte

Volition’s impressive character sharing wouldn’t be possible without AccelByte’s User Generated Content (UGC) service. Our UGC service manages in-game content that has been created by players. With UGC, players can contribute to the community as a creator by sharing character creations/pre-sets that use customization options from the game, which can be downloaded by other players.

Using this service, the creator can upload and then manage their content. Also, Game Admins can manage user-generated content, channels, and view a list of creators for the game.
