About COJ

Move yourself to The Wild West, a time of duels at high noon, bank robberies and the gold rush. Face the legendary gunslingers and take part in spectacular gunfights and horseback chases.

In the single player campaign, the player plays the role of two opposing heroes, with different weaponry and fighting styles. Billy is a rebel and a brawler who was accused of murder and is now trying to escape the punishing hand of the law. Reverend Ray is a former gunslinger, who deserts the Church and takes an oath to deliver justice to Billy and all the criminals he stumbles upon with the thunder of lead bullets. During the game, players will have to make decisions in the blink of an eye to escape as Billy or to execute him as Ray.

Call of Juarez is built with authentic Western situations: treks through vast and wild North American territories, teaming up with Native Americans, brawls in saloons, gunfights and some fun in a local brothel. The game allows players to use the world’s objects as melee weapons or tools to solve logic puzzles. In multiplayer mode, gamers will take part in typical western situations, such as train and bank robberies, ambushing criminals, chases, liberating prisoners and town gunfights.

Call of Juarez uses the third installment of the Chrome Engine. The graphics, AI and multiplayer mode will immerse you in the Wild West as never before.
