Eventually, during their night of passion, Tala lures him to bite her and inherits some portion of his power, transforming herself into a half-vampire creature similar to him. On some of his missions Jericho is accompanied by other Darkwatch forces including his new partner, a sultry and vicious temptress named Tala. Missions include tasks ranging from fixing some of the damage he has caused to acquiring Darkwatch equipment, such as the Darklight Prism, a stone that allows vampires within its vicinity to both use their powers and walk in sunlight. When Jericho passes the test anyway, he begins to do missions for the Darkwatch. Cartwright puts him through Torture Maze, the Darkwatch initiation exercise which was designed as a test for Darkwatch Regulators, but Jericho gets a special version specially designed by Cartwright to kill him. The game continues with the introduction of Cassidy as well as the appearance of Shadow, Jericho's undead horse whom he fed on and turned in a frenzy after being bitten by Lazarus.Īs the game progresses, Jericho finally makes his way to the Darkwatch Citadel, where he meets General Clay Cartwright, the current leader of the order. In a seeming bit of mercy, Lazarus bites Jericho and gives him the curse of the vampire, causing him to slowly turn into one. The game begins in Arizona Territory in 1876 with Jericho attempting to rob a Darkwatch train that is transporting the captured Lazarus Malkoth to the Darkwatch Citadel, a frequently mentioned and often visited location in the game, and in doing so releases Lazarus into the West. The game outlines either Jericho's struggle for humanity or his descent into darkness, depending on the player's actions. Jericho, however, is slowly turning into a vampire himself, after being bitten by Lazarus. After unwittingly releasing the Darkwatch's greatest enemy, a vampire lord named Lazarus Malkoth, Jericho is conscripted into the Darkwatch as an elite operative.

Schneider heaped praise on Sony and its development team, which he described as second to none: “Sony bends over backwards to work with its development teams.
“We’ve been with Sony for a long, long time now, and that’s where we intend to stay for the foreseeable future.” Speaking with GI.biz, Insomniac’s director of marketing and communications Ryan Schneider commented: “Sure, as an independent developer, you do consider those options - but at the same time we do have a great relationship with Sony. Celebrated developer Insomniac Games has declared that it intends on sticking at camp Sony for the ‘forseeable future,’ despite admitting the company has flirted with the possibility of multiformat development.
