More Indiana Jones Games are Coming, New Rumor Claims

As a seasoned adventurer and long-time fan of Indiana Jones, I must say that the prospect of more Indiana Jones games sets my heart racing! Having grown up with the thrill of Indy’s daring escapades, I can’t help but feel a twinge of nostalgia at the thought of returning to the world of whip-cracking archaeology.

As a passionate gamer who can’t get enough of Indiana Jones, I’ve been thrilled by the recent release of “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.” But here’s the exciting part – it looks like there might be more Indy games on the horizon! Now, this isn’t official news yet, but an insider, Daniel Richtman, hinted at it in a cryptic tweet. He wrote something along the lines of “looks like we’re getting more Indy games” with two winking emojis.

After Richtman’s latest update, I found myself pondering if Bethesda and MachineGames might be part of the new Indiana Jones games on the horizon. A follow-up to “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle” seems like a logical choice, but it could take some time due to the usual lengthy development process associated with AAA titles. However, Lucasfilm Games has hinted at potential future projects in this universe. In a recent interview with Variety, Douglas Reilly, vice president and general manager of Lucasfilm Games, expressed that there’s a lot of untapped story potential between the films for more Indiana Jones adventures, which I think would be incredibly intriguing.

The future trajectory of events is hard to predict at this point. So far, Xbox hasn’t disclosed any data related to sales or details on the performance of “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle” on their Game Pass service. It’s speculated that the sales figures might be kept under wraps until after the game’s release on PlayStation 5 next year, once a larger audience has had a chance to play it. Additionally, it will be intriguing to observe if a version of the game is developed for Nintendo Switch 2, potentially enhancing its market reach. Xbox has been open about porting games to Nintendo’s current handheld, but it seems that some titles might be delayed until Nintendo launches their next system.

It would be quite logical for Disney to create another installment in the Indiana Jones series, given that the game “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle” has garnered significant acclaim from critics – something the last two Indy films have not managed. Developing games rather than movies allows Disney to maintain the popularity of the franchise among younger audiences, without the need for producing new films. This approach is also cost-effective for the company, as it eliminates the potential issue of recasting Harrison Ford, who plays the lead role in the series.

Just as you might with any unconfirmed gossip, approach this news cautiously. The video game world can shift rapidly, so until there’s an official announcement regarding a sequel to “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle,” it’s wise not to let your anticipation run too high. Here’s hoping for some exciting updates about the Indy franchise and developers at MachineGames soon!
