Indiana Jones Game Launches on PS5 April 17, Pre-Orders Open

REDMOND, Wash. — Bethesda has officially announced that “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle” will launch on PlayStation 5 on April 17, 2025. The announcement comes with the opening of pre-orders for the game, alongside details on the Premium and Collector’s Editions.

The game, developed by MachineGames, has already garnered critical acclaim following its initial release on Xbox Series X/S and PC on December 9, 2024. “The Great Circle” is set between the events of “Raiders of the Lost Ark” and “The Last Crusade,” and players will take on the role of the iconic archaeologist Indiana Jones as he battles sinister forces to uncover an ancient power.

Pre-orders are now available for three different editions: the Standard Edition priced at $70, the Premium Edition at $100, and the Collector’s Bundle at $199. The Premium Edition offers early access starting April 15, along with exclusive digital content. Players who pre-order any edition will receive bonus in-game items from The Last Crusade Pack, including the Traveling Suit Outfit and the Lion Tamer Whip.

The Collector’s Bundle features various physical collectibles, including an 11-inch Great Circle globe with hidden storage, an Allmaker Relic replica, an Adventure Journal, and a Jumbo SteelBook display case. Additionally, support for PS5 Pro has been confirmed, though specific enhancements are yet to be disclosed.

MachineGames plans to release a free gameplay update across all platforms, introducing new whip abilities called Open Season and Sleight of Hand. These abilities will allow players to increase whip damage temporarily and disarm enemies, respectively.

With the PS5 launch of “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle” on April 17, the game is poised to become a significant multiplatform title as Microsoft also prepares to release another anticipated title just days later.

Critically acclaimed for its engaging gameplay, “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle” has received a top critic rating of 87/100 and a recommendation rate of 95%. It was awarded the D.I.C.E Adventure Game of the Year and was recognized in over 50 Best of 2024 lists.
