Indiana Jones and the Great Circle: The Final Preview

After spending a few hours playing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, it’s clear now that MachineGames's first-person romp is more of an adventure-action game than an action-adventure one, and I love it for that. Previewed by Ryan McCaffrey

It’s giving old school style video game. In a good way

[shugazi]

As a Riddick games fan back in the day, this is like a gift right now

[stephenk]

This is 100% my vibe. Slower pace and less about action? Bring it on!

Lifelong Indiana Jones fan here: I’m praying this game will be a knockout. As a franchise, I don’t think Indiana Jones has gotten the treatment it’s deserved and it didn’t help by the disastrous fifth film (and this is coming from someone who likes Crystal Skull). I’m hoping this game might be the start of a new era for Indy in the world of video games. Poor guy deserves it after the bs he’s been through the past few years

Looks like a blend of Thief, Riddick and Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Brilliant!

[PegaXing]

The long-awaited sequel to the Riddick games is finally here. This looks epic.

A video game that doesn't fetishize guns? That's refreshing, not to mention true to the character.

[Cryotyde]

This looks solid. Watching this gameplay footage (especially when it was from Marshall College) made me want this exact type of game but set in a Lovecraftian atmosphere. Relics, museums, thunder storms, mysterious figures. It's one reason why I love Indy.

I really want this game to be stuffed with secret passages, treasures since it's focused on Adventure. I wanna walk through a lot of caves with a torch lighting the way and find rooms full of shiny gold.

Damn Stalker 2 in November and this in December? Xbox game pass members who are first person cinematic enjoyers get a good end of the year

[bartman]

Looks perfect for me. I'm a huge fan of Indy and Machine Games, couldn't be more excited.

[hugobarakas]

Kingdom of the Crystal Skull wasn’t a flop. It made $800 million and was the second highest grossing movie of 2008 behind The Dark Knight.

[JoeKnowsWorst]

since when does a game NEED to have a well received movie to do well? think this game will do fine on nostalgia alone, especially older gamers!

[offworlder]

Well that looks like a pre order of the Collector’s edition as I thought it would be. Always good to confirm and verify by previews and gameplay.

[GoogleLogin-xisy]

Really like the visual vibe. So cinematic

[Brotacon]

Fate of Atlantis was one of my childhood-defining games. So I'm super hyped for this! I love Indy, and was let down by the last two film outings quite a bit, so it's exciting to see this game shaping up to be good!

[clementcooley]

So glad to hear the game lives up to the hype. I'm so gonna play this!

[ajosephkippkao]

Anyone else feels like Ryan’s voice makes this feel like an ad commercial instead of a preview

[andrewdickson]

ohhhh this looks so good. can you imagine if video game technology had reached this level back in the 80s when Raiders or Temple Of Doom came out. I mean it just looks like a continuation of the films - for guys in their 40s like me who grew up on these films, this is just the perfect game. The fact that it's a day one game pass release is just a huge bonus.

[leviharris]

even a mention of Escape from Butcher Bay and I'm sold. I've always loved Machinegames and after this preview I'm looking forward to December
