If you’re eager to play Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, you won’t have to wait until its official worldwide release on December 9th to play it. It’s hard to say there are many cinematic characters more iconic than Indiana Jones. From the whip and fedora to the charming quips and charismatic smile that Harrison Ford, there are many things that make the character famous and entertaining. For years, Ford has been the only one to play the character on the big screen. There have been a few video games over the years where others have attempted to imitate Ford, but the new game will be the biggest attempt at creating a new Indiana Jones adventure.

Wolfenstein developer MachineGames is making a brand new Indiana Jones story, initially pitched and created by Fallout and Elder Scrolls boss Todd Howard. The game was created in close collaboration with Steven Spielberg and George Lucas and follows Indiana Jones after the events of Raiders of the Lost Arc. The legendary archeologist (played by Troy Baker) is off on an adventure revolving around the so-called Great Circle, a group of mysterious sites that form a perfect circle around a map. Of course, Nazis and other unsavory groups are also in pursuit of artifacts and power that comes from this site. The game is one of Xbox’s biggest first-party titles this generation, but Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will also come to PS5 in the spring.
With that said, Xbox and PC players can get on the action very soon. Although the full release is on Monday, December 9th, you can play the game much sooner.
