Call of Juarez: The Cartel gunning for June 28 - Retail Radar
Walmart, Target, GameStop, and Amazon all agree on late June release date for Ubisoft's upcoming modern Western.
Call of Juarez: The Cartel--which has drawn the ire of the Mexican government--will debut for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC in late June, according to major North American retail listings.
Walmart, Target, GameStop, and Amazon all agree on a Tuesday, June 28, release date for Ubisoft's Western. Call of Juarez: The Cartel was announced in February for a "summer" debut, and the purported June 28 date fits within that time frame. However, Ubisoft has yet to formally announce a release date for the game.
Unlike its predecessors, which were set during the Wild West, Call of Juarez: The Cartel takes place during modern times. As the name implies, the game chronicles a drug war along the Mexican border, casting players as a female FBI agent, a Wild West sheriff type, and an undercover drug agent. Polish developer Techland said it chose the setting in order to capture a "relevant plot" that would connect with today's gamers.
