Call of Juarez will be released for Microsoft's Xbox 360 this summer, game maker Ubisoft has confirmed.

The title, which was originally launched for PC in the autumn of 2006, is a Western first-person shooter.

According to Ubisoft, the Xbox 360 version of the game will offer sharper graphics, more realistic gameplay and better artificial intelligence (AI) than the PC game.

"Call of Juarez captures the brutality and ruthlessness that turned the American Frontier into a theatre of war," Ubisoft said in a press release.

"Players will experience legendary Wild West action including duels at high noon, gruesome shootouts and barroom brawls."

Call of Juarez will offer both single-player and multiplayer game modes.

Gamers can play as one of two characters in the game, Billy Candle, a young man accused of murdering his family, or Reverend Ray McCall, the man who is trying to hunt down Candle.

Ubisoft did not announce any pricing details for the game. The PC version of the game retails for about £34.99.
