What is the expected release date of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle?
Although Bethesda showcased the game in action with the very recent gameplay trailer, they're yet to give a confirmed release date for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. However the studio did confirm a 2024 release window for the title, and judging from Bethesda's track record of releasing their flagship titles, we can predict the potential release date of the game.
Given Bethesda usually sticks to a Fall release schedule for their biggest titles, it can be expected that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will release somewhere between 30 September, 2024 and 31 October, 2024. However, do take this with a grain of salt as these are not officially confirmed release dates by Bethesda Softworks.
What platforms is Indiana Jones and the Great Circle available for?
Developed for the current generation of consoles, MachineGames' upcoming action-adventure title is coming exclusively to Xbox Series X/S and Windows PC (via Steam). MachineGames are always known for pushing the boundaries of FPS gameplay as well as visuals, and their upcoming Indiana Jones title isn't an exception to this rule.
Judging by the trailer, the game seems to use an upgraded id Tech engine that powered Doom Eternal. While the art style seemed quite reminiscent of MachineGames' past titles, the environment, as well as the various on-screen effects, seemed entirely new and something that's taking full advantage of the current-gen console hardware.
