"Always knew someday you’d come walking back through my door..."
Treasure hunters were delighted earlier this year when news of an exciting Indiana Jones game was announced at the Xbox Developer Direct.
And now not only do we have an Indiana Jones and The Great Circle release date, but more news about which platforms will be able to play the game.
All was revealed at Gamescom last night!
Let's take a look at everything we know about Indiana Jones and The Great Circle; from release dates, to cast, to trailers.
When is the Indiana Jones and the Great Circle release date?
It was announced at Gamescom that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will release on PC and Xbox Series X/S on Monday 9th December 2024.
And in an interesting turn of events, the game will also get a PlayStation 5 release sometime in spring 2025.

Can I pre-order Indiana Jones and the Great Circle?
The pre-orders for the game are now live! Pre-purchase from Steam here.
The standard edition is £59.99, and the Premium edition is £85.99. Whichever version you get, though, you'll be treated to the pre-order bonuses of Indy's travelling suit, and his trusty lion tamer whip.
We know that it'll be released on Game Pass from day one, which is an excellent reason to subscribe!
Is Indiana Jones coming to PS5?
Yes, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is coming to PS5.
This was announced during Gamescom Opening Night Live but had long been rumoured. Tango Gameworks's Hi-Fi Rush – a former Xbox exclusive – made the jump to PlayStation 5 in recent times, as well as survival co-op game Grounded and Sea of Tjieves.
As noted earlier, it will still be a timed-exclusive for Xbox and won't see a release on the Sony machine until spring of 2025.
Which consoles and platforms can play Indiana Jones and the Great Circle?
Since 2021, Microsoft have had exclusive rights to both Bethesda Softworks and MachineGames. So we were confident that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle would only release on Xbox and PC.
However, it was announced at Gamescom last night that the game would also get a PS5 release sometime in spring 2025!
So Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will release on Xbox Series X/S, PC, and PlayStation 5 - albeit at different times.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle cast: Who voices Indy?
As for the Indiana Jones and the Great Circle cast, Troy Baker voices Indiana Jones in the new game, doing a decent Harrison Ford impression.
Baker is best known to gamers as the voice of Joel in The Last of Us games, and he also had a small but memorable role in the TLOU TV show (see pic above). He also played the Joker in DC's Arkham Origins game, and has appeared in countless other games over the years.
It looks like Harrison Ford's facial likeness was used for the character model, but it's Baker's voice you'll hear delivering the lines.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle gameplay and story details
The trailer revealed that, unlike both Uncharted and Tomb Raider, this treasure hunting adventure will be first-person.
It's a novel twist for the genre, but judging by the trailer, it looks like it might work.
The whipping, shooting, exploring, and the intense platforming (sometimes from a moving aeroplane) look pretty darn thrilling.
As for the story, we're taking control of a young Indy in 1937. So it's set between Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Last Crusade, and takes place in multiple locations across the globe.
"Venture through a mix of linear, narrative-driven gameplay and open-area maps," the official website says.
"Indulge your inner explorer and unearth fascinating secrets, deadly traps and fiendish puzzles, where anything could potentially hide the next piece of the mystery."
Is there an Indiana Jones and the Great Circle trailer?
There is indeed a trailer! Check out the latest, from last night's Gamescom, below:
