The third title in the Call of Juarez series is taking a note from the Call of Duty franchise, and moving the timeline forward a few notches. While the setting may not be the Old West, lawlessness still runs rampant in the latest iteration subtitled The Cartel.
Three new characters, each with their own baggage will battle the cartel over the course of the game in different locations. The characters are:
- Kim Evans, a gang-affiliated street kid-turned-FBI agent
- Eddie Guerra, a DEA agent with a chronic gambling habit
- Ben McCall, a brutal LAPD detective and descendant of Ray McCall from the original Call of Juarez
Some additional details that we currently know about Call of Juarez: The Cartel are:
- Three player online co-op with Kim, Eddie and Ben
- Gamers can play the entire campaign with each of the three characters; each character has his/her own unique story and ending
- Huge selection of weapons including pistols, machine guns, sniper rifles, anti-air weapons and more
- Wide variety of maps and missions including punitive raids, witness protection, undercover missions, and car chases
