Call of Juarez: Gunslinger Announced

Ubisoft has announced Call of Juarez: Gunslinger. Set to hit Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network and PC in early 2013, Gunslinger “is a real homage to the Wild West tales” that lets players “live the epic and violent journey of a ruthless bounty hunter onto the trail of the West’s most notorious outlaws.” Like previous entries in the franchise, Gunslinger is being developed by Techland.

Ubisoft says Gunslinger will unveil “the untold truth behind some of the greatest legends of the Old West,” including Billy the Kid, Pat Garrett, Jesse James and more. The game will feature “ruthless, all out gun battles” and lets players use pistols and rifles to “unleash lethal combos” and “gun down multiple enemies in split seconds.” Players will also be able to choose specific gun fighting skills and “develop and acquire new shooting abilities to become the West’s finest gunslinger.”

Ubisoft hinted at a new Call of Juarez just yesterday via a teaser image. This will be the fourth game in the franchise, following Call of Juarez in 2007, Bound in Blood in 2009 and The Cartel in 2011.

No additional details on Call of Juarez: Gunslinger have been released, but keep an eye on the franchise’s official Facebook page for more info.
