Codemasters really wants to scare the soul out of every Xbox 360 owner this Fall it seems.  Jericho deals with the mysterious reappearance of a lost city in a remote desert.  When a form of evil that goes right back to the dawn of days resurfaces from there, a Special Forces squad, trained in both conventional warfare and the arcane arts, is sent in.  Their mission: Hunt down and destroy the evil that lurks at the heart of the city before it destroys humanity.

Take a look at the package art for the game and a few screenshots from last week’s UK Press Event, Code07.  There are also images of the characters in the game you see in the latest trailer.  There’s a character named Cole and no it’s not a 300 pound brute.  Cole is a lady in Jericho.  And yes I’m officially afraid of this game (in a good way).
