Uncover one of history’s greatest mysteries in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, a first-person, single-player adventure set between the events of Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Last Crusade. The year is 1937, sinister forces are scouring the globe for the secret to an ancient power connected to the Great Circle, and only one person can stop them—Indiana Jones. You’ll become the legendary archaeologist in this cinematic action-adventure game from MachineGames, the award-winning studio behind the recent Wolfenstein series, and executive produced by Hall of Fame game designer Todd Howard.
You Are Indiana Jones
Live the adventure as Indy in a thrilling story full of exploration, immersive action, and intriguing puzzles. As the brilliant archaeologist—famed for his keen intellect, cunning resourcefulness, and trademark humor—you will travel the world in a race against enemy forces to discover the secrets to one of the greatest mysteries of all time.
A World of Mystery Awaits
Travel from the halls of Marshall College to the heart of the Vatican, the pyramids of Egypt, the sunken temples of Sukhothai, and beyond. When a break-in in the dead of night ends in a confrontation with a mysterious colossal man, you must set out to discover the world-shattering secret behind the theft of a seemingly unimportant artifact. Forging new alliances and facing familiar enemies, you’ll engage with intriguing characters, use guile and wits to solve ancient riddles, and survive intense set-pieces.
Whip-Cracking Action
Indiana’s trademark whip remains at the heart of his gear and can be used to distract, disarm, and attack enemies. But the whip isn’t just a weapon, it’s Indy’s most valuable tool for navigating the environment. Swing over unsuspecting patrols and scale walls as you make your way through a striking world. Combine stealth infiltration, melee combat, and gunplay to combat the enemy threat and unravel the mystery.
The Spirit of Discovery
Venture through a dynamic mix of linear, narrative-driven gameplay and open-area maps. Indulge your inner explorer and unearth a world of fascinating secrets, deadly traps and fiendish puzzles, where anything could potentially hide the next piece of the mystery—or snakes. Why did it have to be snakes?

Outside of the collectibles (and the maps not being very good at telling you where underground collectibles are), I still loved the hell out of this game! It felt like I was playing an interactive version of the original movies. Can be overly reliant on stealth gameplay, but I still highly recommend.
If you enjoy the original Indiana Jones trilogy, I highly recommend this game. It isn't perfect, but it is a lot of fun and nailed down the feel of the original movies.
Amazing game from Machine Games. My game of 2024. Loved every minute of it, and its very loyal to the OG trilogy movies.
Uninstalled it from my series s due to system limitations. Though i will buy it for ps5 for sure.
It's already charting as a top selling pre order on ps store. It's one of my favorite games from last year.
Not a fan of Indiana Jones can't say I've watched any of em either lol,
I am a fan of it's copycats tomb raider and uncharted though,
Without Indiana I wouldn't think those two would triumph
Ofcourse they wouldn't.
Great news! I don't have a PS5 (yet?), but this might eventually be one more option for me (if I don't get this on PC first).
Game looks incredible on PC especially with RT. If your PC can do that
...Doesn't it require RT? Anyway, I haven't checked how well it runs on my RTX 4060, but I would expect it to run well enough.
Also, I have a backlog, and I pay more than 10-20 euros for games with no resale value only very, very rarely, so if I want to get this any time soon, it'll be the PS5 version.
Yes RT is a requirement, but I mean high end RT. Your 4060 will run this game better them a Series X/PS5 unless you have the Pro then it will be more on Par.
Sounds like about what I'd expect, although I'm a bit surprised if the RTX 4060 is on par with the Pro because it's honestly a pretty garbage GPU (but the whole GPU market is garbage at the moment, so it's a 'pick your poison' kind of thing anyway).
