Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood
Ubi announced today that they will be releasing Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood which will serve as a prequel to Call of Juarez the Wild West shooter they released a few years ago. The game will be developed by Techland and should be out later this year for the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360. Personally I'm still waiting for a Dead Wood game where you could shoot people, mix drink, and find new and interesting swear words. Here's the first render from the game and more information is available at the game's website.

New Game is a Prequel to the Successful Wild West Shooter
SAN FRANCISCO – January 13, 2009 – Today Ubisoft announced that it will publish Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood for Xbox 360(TM), Playstation® 3 and PC in 2009. Ubisoft is again teaming with Techland to develop Call of Juarez®: Bound in Blood, a prequel to the action shooter Call of Juarez®.
"Call of Juarez® was well received by gamers and critics,” said Tony Key, senior vice president of sales and marketing at Ubisoft. "We're confident this new collaboration with Techland will bring an even bigger and better adventure to fans of shooters and the lawless Wild West.”
Call of Juarez®: Bound in Blood transports players from a ravaged Civil War-era Georgia to the Aztec ruins of Mexico. In the wildest West ever depicted, players can embody both McCall brothers in an intense Wild West storyline full of greed, lust and lawlessness that takes place during a legendary period of American history.
