Is Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on PC?

As a seasoned PC gamer with a soft spot for adventure games and a deep-rooted affection for Indiana Jones, I must admit that the upcoming release of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has me quite excited. Having grown up playing the classic Indy games on my trusty old 486 DX2, it’s heartening to see the franchise making a comeback in such a big way.

Absolutely! You can buy and enjoy Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on your computer. It’s available for purchase on two popular platforms: Steam and the Microsoft Store. Interestingly, if you opt for the Microsoft Store, you can choose to play it using PC Game Pass or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.

Indiana Jones comes to PC day one

2024 has been a stellar year for gaming, following several fantastic years in the field. We’ve seen the launch of highly-anticipated titles like Helldivers 2, STALKER 2, Balatro, and Animal Well, along with some delightful surprises. These games span various genres, sizes, and shapes, all receiving widespread praise. Despite this impressive lineup, one game that’s still awaited is Indiana Jones and the Great Circle from the collaborative efforts of Bethesda and MachineGames.

Given that it’s been nearly a decade since the last Indiana Jones game appeared on mainstream consoles (since LEGO Indiana Jones 2 in 2009), and considering the same team behind the successful Wolfenstein series is developing this one, it’s no wonder there’s a lot of anticipation for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle’s release on December 9. Furthermore, the buzz has been growing as positive reviews and high Metacritic scores have rolled in, with our own Samuel Tolbert giving it a 4.5 out of 5 in his review at Windows Central. As a result, many are eagerly asking which platforms will support this upcoming Indiana Jones adventure, including PC gamers.

Great news for all the gamers! The much-anticipated Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, exclusive to Microsoft Xbox and PC, will soon be playable on Windows PC. You can purchase it from either Steam or the Microsoft Store, with its Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price being $69.99. This gives you two convenient storefront options. Remember, before the launch, check out the publicized system requirements for Indiana Jones on PC. Given that the specifications are quite demanding, there’s a likelihood you might need to upgrade your gaming rig to play this title smoothly.

What other platforms is Indiana Jones on?

You can purchase Indiana Jones and the Great Circle from Steam or Microsoft Store, but there’s another choice available too: Since this game is an exclusive for both Xbox and PC platforms, you could opt to acquire it on either an Xbox Series X or Series S console. Critics have praised its technical performance as stable and smooth on these consoles, so if you own a current-gen Xbox, the console version might be more suitable than the potentially demanding PC one.

You can enjoy Indiana Jones on both Xbox and PC without buying it at full price on day one by subscribing to Xbox Game Pass. For PC users, the Microsoft Store will provide access through PC Game Pass, while Xbox Game Pass Ultimate grants access on both platforms and enables streaming via Xbox Cloud Gaming. If you’re a PC-only gamer, PC Game Pass is your best bet. But if you game across multiple platforms and enjoy using cloud gaming when away from your primary setup, opt for the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription instead.

To wrap things up, it’s important to mention that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is currently an exclusive title available only on specific timelines, with Microsoft intending to release a version for Sony’s PlayStation 5 in Spring 2025. As of now, there’s no confirmed launch date for this PS5 port, but rest assured, when it does become available, you’ll have the chance to purchase and enjoy the game on your PlayStation 5.

The action-adventure game titled “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle” will be released on December 9, 2024 for both Xbox Series X|S and Windows PC. A PlayStation 5 version is planned for release in 2025. As with all Xbox first-party games, it will be available to play through your Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription, as well as on PC Game Pass. Those who purchase the Premium Edition of the game will receive early access three days before the official launch.
