A teaser trailer from January 2021 confirmed an Indiana Jones game is currently in the making: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. A lot more info concerning the game about the rugged archaeologist has been released since the trailer’s reveal, including if it will be coming to PS5 and PS4, and confirming that it will release in 2024.
Fans are curious about its possible release date and which platforms it will launch on. PlayStation users are especially concerned about the game’s availability, considering MachineGames’ parent company, Bethesda, is owned by Microsoft.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on PlayStation
Microsoft’s acquisition of Bethesda has PlayStation fans fearing they won’t be able to play the game, and it looks that might be the case — Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has not been announced for either PlayStation console, and it doesn’t look like it will be.
However, the Indiana Jones game doesn’t seem to be an Xbox exclusive entirely, as it will also be coming to Steam. There is a chance that it will be coming to PlayStation down the line, but we really wouldn’t hold our breath for that to happen.
About Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
Aside from a 33-second teaser trailer, gamers didn’t have much information until the 2024 Xbox Developer Direct. An official announcement on the Star Wars website called the Indiana Jones game a “wholly original, standalone tale set at the height of the career of the famed adventurer”.
The game’s first gameplay trailer revealed that players will be taking up Indy’s whip in 1937 as he looks to stop Nazis who are “scouring the globe for the secret to an ancient power connected to the Great Circle.” Indy will also be teaming with Gina Lombardi, an investigative reporter who is also seeking answers to some mysteries.
Players will be coming up against the chilling Emmerich Voss and Lucas (played by Tony Todd) as they play through the first-person game and solve puzzles, explore beautiful environments, and whip it real good.
There hasn’t been an Indiana Jones game released since the early 2010s. MachineGames is heading the development in collaboration with LucasFilm Games.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle releases in 2024 for PC and Xbox, with a day one release on Xbox Game Pass.
