Creating an Indiana Jones video game is a daunting task. It’s not just that you have to honor an iconic film franchise that fans are very protective of; you also need to make it stand out from Uncharted, a beloved series that is already ostensibly a thinly veiled Indiana Jones adaptation. It’s a challenge, but one that MachineGames seems to have cracked with Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is more than Xbox’s Uncharted

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle showed up during Gamescom ONL. Check out the latest footage right here. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is incredibly hyped, and we’re eager to check it out ourselves. But while we continue to wait for MachineGames to finish up the project, there was a new glimpse into the game. During today’s Gamescom ONL, MachineGames showcased just a little more about what fans can expect.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Gets Release Date & PS5 Confirmation

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is supposed to be the big console and Game Pass exclusive for Xbox this fall, but it won’t be long until it comes to PlayStation 5 too, according to new reports. The port has been rumored for months and is the latest Xbox game to lose exclusivity amid Microsoft’s new multiplatform push.

[Note: Unless otherwise indicated, the commentary and quotes in this article are from the author's interview with those mentioned.]. Elizabeth Montgomery was one of the most popular actors from the 1950s to her unfortunate passing from cancer in 1995. Before, during, and after her benchmark Emmy-nominated role as twitch-witch Samantha Stephens on TV's Bewitched (ABC, 1964-1972), Montgomery made over 200 additional appearances in other weekly shows, TV-movies, and feature films.

“You never get a second chance to make a first impression.” The ad wizards who wrote that copy were certainly onto something when they created this memorable tagline, but Decider’s “Take Two” series was specifically formulated in a laboratory by the world’s foremost pop culture scientists to provide a second chance for movies that made a less than stellar first impression upon their original release.

The woman who shot a video of a hydrothermal explosion in Yellowstone National Park on Tuesday morning told WyoFile she and her family were terrified as the blast sent boiling water and rocks skyward, destroying parts of a boardwalk, its guardrail and a nearby bench.

With Run The Series, The A.V. Club examines film franchises, studying how they change and evolve with each new installment. Alien: Romulus marks a turning point in the Alien series. It’s not where the series begins to tumble irrevocably downhill, because it’s already settled into a rollercoaster with plenty of peaks, hairpin turns, and, thus far, just one steep drop. (We’ll get to that later.) It’s not where it becomes either a multi-filmmaker or single-filmmaker franchise, because it’s been both of those already, in some cases multiple times. It’s not even a pivot point in the series’ fictional timeline, because it’s positioned comfortably, perhaps over-safely, in the zone somewhere between Ellen Ripley going into cryo-sleep at the end of Alien and waking up at the beginning of Aliens. But speaking of Ripley: Romulus is the point where, technically speaking, there are more Alien movies without Ellen Ripley than with her. It marks Alien’s surrender into true franchise-dom.

Alien may have surrendered to franchising, but its mutating DNA will never be tamed

These days, one of the first things players look at when starting a new title is its world design. Open world games have taken over the industry, and unless people get a mesmerizing world where they can lose themselves in a new game, they don’t spend too much time with it. We’ll be honest; we, too, have a soft spot for open world games.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle launch date announced — and it’s coming to PS5, too

Fans have been excited but cautiously concerned about how Machine Games (best known for the modern, hyper-violent Wolfenstein first-person shooters) will put their own spin on the archeological adventures of Indiana Jones. But in a recent preview, I saw the studio pull back the curtain a bit on what the game has in store for players, and I was pleased to see the the weathered professor use his brains as much as his brawn -- unearthing treasures, disguising his way behind enemy lines and yes, using his trusty whip to get in and out of danger.
