fresh Indiana Jones trailer drops, but no release date yet

MachineGames recently unveiled a new trailer for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle at the Xbox Showcase 2024. The trailer highlights a gripping cinematic featuring Indiana Jones in a perilous situation in the Himalayas. Set to release for Xbox Series X/S and PC later this year, the game follows Indy on an expedition across the globe to uncover ancient, powerful artifacts. Notably, the game's storyline fits between the events of the films Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Last Crusade. Players can anticipate first-person gameplay and voice acting by Troy Baker. This game will remain an Xbox console exclusive. For more details, the game was initially announced in January 2021, with its official title and gameplay revealed in January 2023.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is expected to be released later this year, with a potential December release window according to a report from The Verge.

Indiana Jones remains one of the most iconic characters in film history, first appearing in Raiders of the Lost Ark in 1981. The character's adventures blend action, archaeology, and mythos, making Indiana Jones a cultural touchstone. The move to video games seeks to capture the same adventurous spirit, bringing immersive experiences to fans through cutting-edge gameplay and storytelling elements.
