A new bible-based virtual reality game allows players to "become Jesus Christ" as they experience his life first hand.
I Am Jesus Christ gives gamers the chance to perform over 30 miracles from a first-person perspective, including healing the blind, casting out demons and calming the seas as they follow his life on earth from baptism to ascension.
Each miracle completed is accompanied by a scripture linking to the New Testament story it refers to.
Players can also pray to receive the "superpower" of the Holy Spirit, "battle Satan" in the desert and rise from the dead in the biblical simulation game by unknown developer SimulaM.
A trailer for the new game was shared by entertainment site IGN on Friday.
I Am Jesus Christ's release has not yet been announced but is said to be "coming soon" on popular gaming site Steam.

In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.
Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.
For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.
