Saints Row opens in 2006, as Stilwater suffers from gang warfare at the hands of three distinct criminal syndicates: the Vice Kings, an African American gang that primarily earns revenue from strip clubs, brothels and record labels; Los Carnales, a Hispanic drug cartel that dominates the narcotics trade and gun-running; and the Westside Rollerz, a gang consisting of Caucasian and Asian members who operate on the lucrative underground racing club. The player character, a random bystander, becomes caught in a crossfire between the three while walking through the streets of the Saint's Row district but is saved by Troy Bradshaw (Michael Rapaport), a member of a smaller multiracial gang called the 3rd Street Saints. Owing to the increasing violence, Saints leader Julius Little (Keith David) initiates the player into the gang and has them reclaim Saint's Row from their rivals, before assigning them to work under his top lieutenants, Dexter "Dex" Jackson (JAQ), Johnny Gat (Daniel Dae Kim), and Lin (Tia Carrere), in wiping out each rival gang.

Gat focuses on hitting operations owned by the Vice Kings, including faking the death of their key asset - Gat's girlfriend and popular R&B singer Aisha (Sy Smith) - which culminate in the gang's leader, Benjamin King (Michael Clarke Duncan), being betrayed by his closest associates for refusing to respond to the Saints' actions. After Julius has him rescued, Benjamin agrees to retire his gang in exchange for the Saints' help in killing his traitorous successor: former Vice Kings madam Tanya Winters (Mila Kunis). Meanwhile, Dex focuses on the Carnales by having the player help the Saints take over their drug operations, and ultimately eliminate their leaders, brothers Hector (Joaquim de Almeida) and Angelo Lopez (Freddy Rodriguez), while also securing a deal with the gang's chief Colombian supplier, Manuel Orejuela (Carlos Ferro). Concurrently, Lin works undercover amongst the Rollerz, eventually learning that the gang is led by street racer Joseph Price (Gregory Sims) and his uncle, wealthy private attorney William Sharp (David Carradine). The player helps Lin earn Price's trust, but Sharp eventually deduces that Lin is a mole and attempts to have her and the player killed. Lin does not survive the encounter, so the player exacts revenge by killing Sharp and Price.

With the city firmly under the control of the Saints, Julius rewards the player for their efforts by naming them his chief lieutenant. Shortly thereafter, however, Stilwater's corrupt police chief, Richard Monroe, has Julius arrested and forces the player to assassinate the city's mayor for his opponent, Alderman Richard Hughes (Clancy Brown), under the threat of having Julius killed in prison. The player complies, but Monroe refuses to release Julius, leading the Saints to ambush Monroe's motorcade, killing him and rescuing Julius. After winning the mayoral election, Hughes invites the player to his private yacht, where he reveals his intentions to have the Saints arrested and Saint's Row sold to private developers after being razed. Meanwhile, Troy is revealed to have been an undercover cop working to dismantle the Saints, and Julius watches the yacht from a distance, having placed hidden explosives on it. As Julius leaves, the yacht is destroyed in an explosion, seemingly killing everyone onboard.
