Bethesda and MachineGames have together finally revealed the release date for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on PlayStation 5, and it’s April 17th.
Originally an exclusive for Xbox Series S|X and PC players, the PS5 version will come in three flavours, all of which are available for digital pre-order now:
- Standard Edition – Digital + Physical
- Premium Edition – Digital + Physical
- Collector’s Bundle – Physical only
Bethesda says: “With all pre-orders, players will receive The Last Crusade Pack, with the Traveling Suit Outfit and the Lion Tamer Whip. The Premium edition will have access to the upcoming story DLC, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle: The Order of Giants which will be available later this year, in addition to the Temple of Doom Outfit, and a digital-art book. The digital Premium Upgrade edition, which enjoys all the perks above, will be available for purchase on April 17 for those with the base game. The digital and physical Premium Editions, along with the Collector’s Bundle, include two days of early access starting on April 15.”
PlayStation 5 players prepare to step into the boots of the iconic adventurer and experience an authentic Indiana Jones journey set in 1937, between the events of Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. In this cinematic, single-player adventure, players will use Indy’s whip and wits to navigate a narrative-driven world of adventure, immersive action, and intriguing puzzles. Combining stealthy infiltration, first-person melee, and gunplay to sneak, fight, and puzzle, confront sinister forces around the world as Indiana Jones.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has been visually optimized for the PlayStation 5 Pro. In tandem with the PlayStation 5 launch, players can look forward to new whip abilities, Open Season and Sleight of Hand. With “Open Season”, whip-cracking an enemy will temporarily cause them to take more damage from subsequent attacks, while when using “Sleight of Hand,” players can disarm an enemy and cause their weapon to fly Indy’s way. These new abilities will be available across all platforms by April 15.
The collector’s bundle includes an 11inch “Great Circle Globe”, with a “puzzle mechanic that unlocks a hidden storage compartment when solved. The bundle also includes an Allmaker Relic replica, Adventure Journal, and Jumbo SteelBook display case, in addition to the digital content” for other versions.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is out now for Xbox Series S|X, and PC. It’s coming to PlayStation 5 on April 17th.
