The troublemakers of Team Fortress 2 are coming to Saints Row: The Third thanks to a cross-over promotion between Valve and Volition that will see masks based on the Heavy, Spy, Pyro, and friends wash up on the shores of Steelport.
Volition's TF2-inspired freebie is a follow-up to an earlier Steam promotion wherein those who pre-ordered Saints Row: The Third through Valve's service were rewarded with Saints Row items including The Mark of the Saint, a special pin for all classes; the Apoca-Fists, melee weapons sporting the equivalent of “nineteen Horsemen of the Apocalypse per glove”; and the Cold War Luchador, also known as Killbane's mask.
This Tuesday is shaping up to be a big day for Saints Row: The Third owners, especially those who picked up their copy through Steam. Last year, THQ's Brian Farrell revealed there would be 40 weeks of DLC support for Volition's open-world gangster game, so if you're feeling a little shafted by the console snub, odds are you won't be disappointed for long.
