Indiana Jones and the Great Circle release date and platforms

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle releases on December 9, 2024, for Xbox and PC via Windows and Steam. The Xbox release includes Series X|S, Xbox One, and Xbox Cloud Gaming. MachineGames is also bringing Indiana Jones to PS5, but that won’t happen until sometime in spring 2025.

You can prepurchase on Steam now, but unless you’re buying the more expensive premium edition, there’s not much reason to. Unless things change later, it looks like you aren’t missing out on any pre-order bonuses. The add-ons Xbox lists are bundled with the game.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle editions and prices

MachineGames has two editions of the new Indiana Jones game, and unlike with some other modern games, the prices don’t vary wildly depending on your platform.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle standard edition: $69.99

  • Base game
  • Last Crusade suit 
  • Last Crusade whip

Things get a little confusing here. Steam doesn’t list these add-ons for the standard edition, so it looks like they might be an Xbox-only thing.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle premium edition: $99.99

  • Base game
  • Order of Giants DLC (playable when the DLC launches)
  • Last Crusade suit
  • Last Crusade whip
  • Temple of Doom outfit
  • Digital artbook
  • 3 days of early access before launch

These add-ons are all part of the premium edition on Steam as well.

Will Indiana Jones and the Great Circle be on Game Pass?

It will indeed, though you'll need Game Pass ultimate to play it, after Xbox changed Game Pass prices and how first-party games will come to the service.
