Saints Row 2022: How To Modify And Customize Weapons

Open-world shooters have always relied heavily on customization and transformation.

That is no different when it comes to the Saints Row franchise. I always marvel at the array of options available to me through colors, models, and skins.

Saints Row 2022 has kept the same flavor going through Santo Ileso, and you can start your journey after clearing the first few missions.

For players who are having trouble understanding the mechanics of the weapons change and how to get it done, the following guide is for you.

Saints Row 2022: Getting a Friendly Fire store

As mentioned above, you will not have the ability to start customizing weapons right from the beginning.

Players will have to finish with the opening three missions “First F#@!ing Day,” “Morning Commute,” and “Making Rent,” that will allow you to explore the game readily.

  • After clearing the missions, I headed over to a Friendly Fire store
  • It is represented by a green icon that has a gun in the middle
  • Only Friendly Fire shops can enable players to start customizing their weapons as much as they want
  • Once you interact with the counter, it will show the weapons you have and all the customizable options like colors, upgrades, or even purchase newer ones.
