MachineGames’ Indiana Jones game revealed

MachineGames has shown a first look at their upcoming Indiana Jones game, titled Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. While the game makes use of Harrison Ford’s likeness, The Last of Us’ Troy Baker will be voicing the iconic character.

Set between Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Last Crusade, Indy’s latest adventure will take you from “the hallowed halls of the Vatican and the arid deserts of Egypt to the lush and sunken temples of Sukhothai and the frigid peaks of the Himalayas.”

“Our game is about putting you in the shoes of an iconic hero,” said design director Jens Andersson.

“Since we are doing this mostly in first-person, you have the chance to truly become Indy. First-person makes you part of this world – allowing you to explore and experience things more intimately. What will you do when you’re dropped into this adventure with your wits and your whip?”

Andersson continued “The world of Indiana Jones is a world with mysteries around every corner, where you’re racing against the clock and outsmarting your enemies as you hunt down artifacts.”

Senior animator Rebecca Elfstrӧm Hidén described MachineGames’ take on Indiana Jones as “like two pieces of a puzzle that just fit so well together.”

“We have big, sometimes crazy ideas that seem insane on paper, but they meshed really well with the franchise.

“You’ve got this amazing adventure that digs into the heart of the character and shines a light on all the things that made people fall in love with him in the first place, and then you’ve got these big, complex set pieces that just fit really well in there.

“Our DNA and the pillars of Indiana Jones just came together so naturally.”

Indiana Jones and The Great Circle is set to release sometime in 2024 for Xbox Series X|S, PC and Game Pass.
