We're less than a week away from Indiana Jones' next big adventure, in which the rock-buzzing, grail-drinking archaeologist goes in search of a great ancient circle, and ahead of its release, developer MachineGames has revealed the requirements for PC and, as a bonus, a new trailer.
The Great Circle in question (it's in the title, so it's probably relatively important as the story progresses) is, as game director Jerk Gustafsson previously explained, “very real and mysterious.” It just so happens to connect many historical sites like Giza, Easter Island, Sukhothai and Nazca as it travels around the circumference of the Earth, and no one has ever figured out why. Except, probably, Indiana Jones, in about a week.
And if you're a PC gamer thinking about joining Indy on his first-person adventure around the world, MachineGames has now detailed exactly what hardware you'll need to have inside your computer to ensure it runs at a satisfactory level. In all cases, you'll want to free up 120GB of storage, the full specifications of which are detailed at the bottom of this page.
As noted on the Bethesda blog, Indy potentially comes a little smaller on Xbox, with a base install size of about 87GB. However, there is an optional 45GB higher resolution texture pack that is installed by default on Xbox Series X.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle launches for Xbox Series the Collector's Edition. Edit: You'll find specific release times here. As for PlayStation 5 owners, it will be available on Sony's console in spring 2025.
Eurogamer's Ian Higton was positively buzzing with excitement when he tested himself with the Great Circle in October. “I think it's going to be something really special,” he wrote, “and I can't wait to play more.” And on that note, those PC system requirements in full:
