VIRTUAL STEELPORT

Virtual Steelport, also known as Simulation 31,[1]  is the main setting of Saints Row IV and Enter The Dominatrix.

Zinyak_with_map_of_Steelport_SRIV.jpgiption Edit
This virtual simulation of Steelport appears in Saints Row IV. Created by Emperor Zinyak, The Protagonist is placed in the simulation by the Zin Empire after their invasion of Earth.

A peaceful, 1950s segment of Steelport appears in the mission "A Pleasant Day", before The Protagonist is moved to a new, darker version.

The Virtual Steelport has a large mothership hovering over the city, and is set at night time, making it seem dystopic.

At 530m above water level is a visible barrier, preventing the player from reaching the mothership.
