Indiana Jones and the Great Circle: Coming to PS5 After Xbox Exclusive
In an exciting development for gaming enthusiasts, Microsoft and Bethesda have announced that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will officially be making its way to the PS5. This title is set to debut first on Xbox and PC on December 9th, with the PlayStation 5 version expected to release in spring 2025.
The Timeline: Xbox First, PS5 to Follow
This confirmation came during the Gamescom Opening Night Live event where Bethesda shared the game's launch strategy. Following months of speculation and exclusive reports, the timelines for the game's availability on different platforms are now clear.
Short Period of Exclusivity
According to earlier reports by The Verge, Microsoft was exploring the possibility of launching the game on PS5 shortly after its initial release. Bethesda is reportedly targeting an April 2025 release for the PS5 version; however, this date could shift based on the ongoing development progress.
Project Latitude: A New Multiplatform Strategy
The decision to bring Indiana Jones and the Great Circle to multiple platforms is part of an internal initiative at Bethesda dubbed Project Latitude. This strategy indicates a shift in the way Xbox is approaching their game releases. Other titles under this initiative include the upcoming Doom: The Dark Ages, which is also set to launch on PS5 in 2025.
Previous Multiplatform Releases
This move follows a trend where Microsoft has made its previously Xbox-exclusive titles available on the PS5. Games such as Hi-Fi Rush, Pentiment, Sea of Thieves, and Grounded have already seen successful launches across platforms.
