This Saints Row guide explains how to tow vehicles.

After an initial delay, the 2022 Saints Row reboot is here. The latest entry in the long-running open world crime series has been revamped in a number of ways, for better or worse.

While reviews of the game have been mixed, it’s still sure to be pretty popular thanks to its unique brand of sandbox mayhem.

This reboot of the classic ‘GTA clone’ series follows a gang of Millennials/Gen Z’ers as they take on the criminal underworld in a bid to build an illegal empire of their own.

Saints Row takes place in the desert city of Santo Ileso. While it’s no Los Santos, there’s still quite a lot to explore and discover. And with that comes a number of things for players to learn.

The game boasts a number of different mission types that requires players to make use of different skills and tools. Figuring out how they all work isn’t always straightforward.

This is how to tow in Saints Row: Reverse up to the vehicle/container and press R1/RB. A green indicator will appear to help you line up. When the other vehicle/container turns green, press R1/RB again to connect the towing cable.
