Codemasters confirms development on Clive Barker's Jericho for next-gen and PC platforms...
Codemasters has today announced the development of Clive Barker's Jericho, a supernatural horror title with a storyline devised by the Hellraiser author. The game, which has been pencilled in for release in late 2007, follows the story of a crack special-ops team who are sent in to track down and destroy an ancient evil that's growing within the walls of a lost desert city.
Jericho will be the second videogame to bare Barker's name, the first being Clive Barker's Undying in 2001, and will be released for Xbox 360, PlayStation3, and PC.
In a statement, Clive Barker said, "It's incredible when a company as admired as Codemasters embraces your vision the way they have embraced Jericho. This project is very close to my heart and I don't believe there's ever been anything like it. It promises to be the most spectacular, creative, and unflinching realization of a Clive Barker nightmare that will drag players in kicking and screaming."
"Players will constantly be given new challenges, new environments, and yes, new horrors and abominations to face every step of the way," continues Barker. "However, unlike a conventional game in which the characters are attempting to escape at the end of their ride through Hell, our protagonists have a much more difficult task. The closer they come to the end of their trek into darkness, the nearer they get to the source of that darkness: Evil Incarnate, we'll call it for now..."
Making the announcement, Barry Jafrato, Codemasters' Senior VP of Brand commented, "Clive's astounding skills in creating the darkest of fantastical scenarios that twist our dreams makes him the perfect creator for a rich horror video game. The visual and audio capabilities of the next-generation gaming formats will enable this project to be realised as an incredible experience with scenarios and cinematographic effects that will both thrill and terrify."
