Saints Row 4 Gameplay: Neil Patrick Harris To Play DJ Veteran Child, Deep Silver Hires Celebrity Voice Actors For Roles In New Game

Publisher Deep Silver announced the cast of presidential superhero sandbox action game Saints Row 4 today, revealing that the game will feature the voice acting talent of Keith David, Neil Patrick Harris, Rob Van Dam, Michael Dorn, Terry Crews and other golden throats, Polygon writes. 

Keith David, Troy Baker, Laura Bailey, Yuri Lowenthal and JB Blanc will join Steve Jaros, studio creative director at developer Volition, for a panel at Comic-Con in San Diego this week, Polygon also writes. 

Neil Patrick Haris will play the role of DJ Veteran Child.

But celebrity voice-overs aren't the only changes made to Saints Row 4. 

The developers of Saints Row 4 teamed up with Deep Silver and Futureus to launch SaintsGOV.com, a government website for the Saints, according to Gameranx. 

"While on the website, people can participate in polls to vote for specific laws such as clothing optional supermarkets or amusement parks where the admission fee depends on the weight of your clothing," Gameranx writes.

"Once you vote for your desired laws, you can register guns of all kind. For a classic appeal, the Deacon 12-Guage shotgun will service your simple needs. For those feeling a little thin, the Infalto-ray will inflate any targets the gun hits. Perfect for parties, the Dubstep Gun will shoot more dubstep than humanly consumable."

Saints Row 4 is infused with capabilities that allow users to kill enemies in the game using tactics unheard of before, including aiming a weapon at someone that will eventually make their head explode.

Volition will release the game on August 20 for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 consoles. The developer has not announced changes for next-generation consoles Playstation 4 and Xbox One.
