Downloadable shooter reloads series on PSN

Would the real Call of Juarez please stand up? Techland has deployed a brand new trailer for its upcoming PlayStation Network first-person shooter Call of Juarez: Gunslinger – and it looks like a real return to form for the underrated Western series. The footage teases showdowns against real-life historical figures such as Billy the Kid and Jesse James, promising a tale of pure, unadulterated vengeance.

Most impressive, though, are the visuals. For a downloadable game this looks absolutely stunning – almost too good to be true. There’s a hint of Borderlands to the art direction, particularly in the exaggerated blood splatters and vibrant settings. As huge fans of the series, we’re eagerly anticipating this.
