Saints Row Fan Makes Harley Quinn With the Character Creator

While Saints Row isn't here yet, the game allows people to make their 'Bosses' ahead of launch and one user comes up with a version of Harley Quinn.

p>The Saints Row reboot game doesn't launch until August 23, but that isn't stopping fans from remaking some of their favorite characters to play in the game when it does finally get here. Thanks in large part to game's developers releasing a Boss Factory demo well ahead of time, users have been able to design their "bosses" however they want; including one user who decided to create their own version of Harley Quinn.

The Saints Row franchise has long been one of those franchises that has leaned heavily into the character creator. However, this year's version is going to be offering just a little more, thanks to the advanced graphics and resolution that are available on today's consoles. The character creator in the franchise's reboot can certainly allow people to get as goofy as they want with their character's appearance, but they can also be surprisingly realistic and life-like.

Reddit user The_Midnight_Fog showed off what they had done with the deeply immersive Saints Row character creator by showing off how they had made their main character look quite a bit like DC Comics character Harley Quinn. There were some liberties that had to be taken, as the anti-hero's outfit isn't readily available inside the upcoming game, but the head and hair of this Harley Quinn certainly look like the spitting image.

This Saints Row character sported some eye paint that was made to look like the Harley Quinn facemask she's famous for, and the picture also showed off the famous two-tone hair. The Redditor's version of the beloved character has blonde hair that split into two ponytails that are tinted blue at their ends.

Where this version of Harley Quinn definitely diverged from the original was that the Saints Row version sported a red sparkly dress. Her oversized mallet is also nowhere to be seen. Despite those differences, the creation is still quickly and easily identifiable even if the caption didn't tip off who she was supposed to look like.

For those who aren't devoted DC Comics followers, Harley Quinn started her career as a sidekick and love interest to Gotham's most feared villain, The Joker. However, in recent comics, movies and television shows, she has ventured out and forged her own identity. On the big screen, the live action version of the character has been played by Margot Robbie while an animated version that appears in her own show on HBO Max is voiced by The Big Bang Theory's Kaley Cuoco.

Saints Row releases August 23 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
