Codemasters today announced that its action-horror game Clive Barker's Jericho has shipped to retail outlets nationwide. A squad-based shooter based on an original concept by Clive Barker, Jericho is available for the Xbox 360, PLAYSTATION 3 and Games for Windows.

The game is rated "M" by the ESRB. The Games for Windows Edition is also available to play for GameTap subscribers and for downloadable purchase at GameTap.com .

Clive Barker's Jericho dispatches gamers to the Middle-Eastern city of Al-Khali, where the most ancient of evils has resurfaced; causing paranormal activity that has caught the eye of the military. Controlling the Jericho squad, an expert strike team skilled in both conventional and paranormal warfare, players fight their way through slices of time on a grueling journey as they make their way toward the heart of the evil. Along the way, gamers encounter the horrific armies of hellish denizens that now rule the city and corrupt everything they touch, and as they incrementally approach the source of evil, players will have to rely less and less on traditional weapons and instead focus on the combined psychic talents of the Jericho Squad.
