Clive Barker's Jericho: Special Edition

About

Clive Barker's Jericho: Special Edition casts players as a squad of seven soldiers navigating a nightmare realm. You shift between team members during missions to tackle different threats, sniper cover here, close combat there. The world is warped by eldritch horrors, forcing tough choices about who lives or dies. Ammo and healing are scarce, and the grotesque enemies never let up. It’s a tense, methodical shooter where survival depends on managing limited resources and timing switches wisely. The control system stands out, switching between characters mid-firefight adds strategy but can feel clunky. Barker’s dark mythology shapes the story, though the grim tone might not suit everyone. With a 54% Metacritic score, it remains a niche title. The Special Edition adds minor polish but doesn’t fix pacing issues or dated visuals. Still, fans of team-based survival horror with a body-horror twist might find it rewarding.
