After years of anticipation, Bethesda and Lucasfilm Games have finally unveiled the fruit of their collaboration, a brand-new game based on the famous archaeologist Indiana Jones. Developed with MachineGames, the studio that won numerous awards for the Wolfstein saga , the game is finally showing itself to the general public: a trailer was released on January 18, 2024, during the Xbox Developer Direct.
Indiana Jones and the Ancient Circle is due for release in 2024, and will be an Xbox Series and PC exclusive. It's an original story, in which we find Indiana Jones at the height of his career and adventures, well before the events of the fourth film. Many elements of this action-adventure game remain a mystery, but here's what we know so far.
" Unravel one of history's greatest mysteries in a first-person solo adventure set between the events of Raiders of the Lost Ark™ and The Last Crusade™. It' s 1937, dark forces roam the globe in search of the secret of an ancient power linked to the Great Circle, and only one person is capable of stopping them: Indiana Jones™. "
Toughbattles against Nazis, mysterious temples filled with traps andpuzzles, inescapable music: no doubt about it, Indie is back, in an exceptional quest that should take us to the four corners of the world. The game's trailer offers us a glimpse of the game's polished visuals and high-quality graphics, a universe that immerses us in the hero's original trilogy... And a first-person gameplay system.
This choice may have come as a surprise to some, but it doesn't seem so incongruous in a title that combines combat, infiltration and shoot-outs.
Indiana Jones and the Ancient Circle will be available on Game Pass as soon as it is released. We can't wait to find out more about this game.
