Indiana Jones Coming to PS5 after Xbox, Reveals Microsoft
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is being made by MachineGames, the same Swedish studio that brought us the Wolfenstein series. Bethesda is publishing the game, and both companies are now owned by Microsoft since they bought ZeniMax Media. In the game, you’ll get to play as the famous archaeologist, Indiana Jones, going on a thrilling adventure packed with puzzles, fighting, and exploring.
At first, there were rumors that the game might be an Xbox exclusive, especially after the FTC hearings in 2023 suggested that future Bethesda games could be Xbox-only. But with the game also coming to PS5, Microsoft clearly wants to reach more players and make more money from game sales and updates.
We already mentioned how the game was announced during Gamescom Opening Night Live. But along with that, Gamescom also gave us a first look at the trailer for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.

In the game, Indiana Jones will use not just his whip and revolver but also a camera and a journal. The journal is crucial for solving puzzles related to the Great Circle’s mysteries. You’ll need to be quick-thinking and always have a backup plan, as things often don’t go as planned when Indy’s involved.

Overall, the fact that Indiana Jones Great Circle is coming to PS5 is a big deal. It shows how gaming is changing—there used to be a time when certain games were only on specific consoles, but that’s not as common anymore. Now, as the release date gets closer, fans can get excited about exploring the Indiana Jones’ adventures on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC.
