An insider says that we have to wait for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on PlayStation 5 for a little while longer.
Recently, information about the PS5 version of the game appeared in the database of the rating agency ESRB, which was the first hint of its imminent release. And now an insider, Billbil-kun, wrote the exact release date. Previously, he correctly predicted the release of Civilization 7, Lego Horizon Adventures, and also revealed the details of the collector’s edition of Death Stranding 2.
The PS5 version of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is expected to be released on April 17, 2025. The game will be released in two versions — standard and premium:
- Standard edition — $69.99
- Premium edition — $109.99, includes early access and probably DLC
Both versions will be available physically, so collectors can (most likely) exhale. Also, pre-orders will become obsolete very soon — March 25.
The release of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on PS5 is another step in Microsoft’s new policy of releasing Xbox exclusives on other platforms. Although sometimes for them require you to link your account to Microsoft. Over the past year, we have released Sea of Thieves, Hi-Fi Rush, Grounded and Pentiment on PlayStation and Switch and in the future are expected to Forza Horizon 5, Doom: The Dark Ages and even Halo.
The game received excellent reviews at launch, in particular as Metacritic gave an average score of 86, and Opencritic — 87. Journalists called it a «smart action game in the style of classic adventures». Critics wrote that the game has excellent stealth mechanics, and killing Nazis is fun and exciting. Although stealth doesn’t always fit the general mood of Indiana Jones’ adventures — the game has an interesting plot.
The game development was sometimes as much fun as the critics’ reviews. To create the image of the legendary archaeologist, a voice actor went on a 9-hour binge. The project was also developed by MachineGames, known for its work on the Wolfenstein series of games, Todd Howard was the executive producer of the project. And according to DSOGaming, the Indiana Jones game became one of the ten most beautiful games of 2024.
