Call of Juarez: The Cartel
 Nice, but where's the trigger? This article or section is incomplete. You can help IMFDB by expanding it. |
Call of Juarez: The Cartel is the third game in the Call of Juarez series. The game leaves the American West setting for a present day setting, but retains the ingredients of the Western setting (ala No Country for Old Men or Longmire) The game begins when a DEA building in Los Angeles is bombed by a drug cartel. The federal government is now in fear that a simple drug cartel could breach a federal building. The government then makes a last ditch effort to stop the Mendoza Cartel once and for all. Three law enforcement agents (Ben McCall, Eddie Guerra, and Kim Evans) track the cartel from Los Angeles, California, to Juarez, Mexico (A previous setting for the series). They start in Los Angeles where they burn down a marijuana plantation in the Sequoia National Forest, and go on a bloody road trip through Arizona, New Mexico, and finally Juarez, Mexico. A fourth game entitled Call of Juarez: Gunslinger is currently in development.
