**Activities** and **Diversions** are included in *Saints Row: The Third*.

## Overview

Completing Activities is a way to earn Cash and Respect, as well as City Takeover territory. Diversions only give Respect, but most are tied to Challenges which award cash when performed under certain conditions.

Unlike previous games, Activities no longer have increasingly harder levels, but are instead separated into six instances over two Districts and ranked by difficulty. Completing "easy" instances of each Activity unlocks the "medium" and "hard" instances in each District.

There are 56 instances of Activities in *Saints Row: The Third*. 54 of these are nine separate Activities split into six instances, with the only exception being "Guardian Angel", of which there are only two instances.

Individual Activities do not have cutscenes or introductions.

## Compulsory Activities

At least 1 of each type of Activity is compulsory. 14 Activity instances required as part of the storyline and are counted as both activities and missions in regard to game completion. This includes 12 "easy" Activity levels, as well as both instances of "Guardian Angel". There are only 6 "easy" activity levels which are not compulsory.

Compulsory Activity groups have standalone start and end cutscenes which are started like missions.

Individual Compulsory Activities have introductory phone call when started via the Cellphone, but which are not played if the activity is started via the activity marker.
