Fend Off Satan in the New ‘I Am Jesus Christ’ Video Game

Gaming has become a modern-day religion for many. However, communion bread has been replaced with Doritos, and sacramental wine has been exchanged for energy drinks. And while most of us feel like the Second Coming after a Victory Royale in Fortnite, what if it was possible to play a video game as the big JC himself? Well, there’s one game coming very soon that could answer your prayers. Just try not to get a god complex.

I Am Jesus Christ Video Game

There’s a new adventure game that allows gamers to slip on the sandals of Christianity’s favourite prophet and act out the New Testaments’ greatest hits. Kind of.

First announced in 2019, I Am Jesus Christ is a simulation game where you play as the son of God, recreating his story as told in the Bible. That means performing various miracles like healing the sick and feeding the hungry, walking on water, turning water into wine, and much more. The game will stretch from Jesus’s baptism all the way to his resurrection, and yes, there will come a time when Jesus will have to battle against Satan. Boss fight, anyone?

Over 60 characters from the Bible are featured in I Am Jesus Christ, including all of Christ’s disciples. You’ll even be able to recreate The Last Supper,

A prologue of the game – described by the developer as a beta test – will be available to play on Steam starting December 1. The prologue is basically a free, shortened version of the game that takes place in ancient Nazareth. The full version won’t be fully resurrected until the first quarter of 2023.

Check out the trailer above.
