Indiana Jones and the Great Circle: A PS5 Release on the Horizon?
Reports suggest that Bethesda's Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, slated for release on Xbox Series X/S and PC later this year, may arrive on PlayStation 5 in the first half of 2025.
This news comes from industry insider Nate the Hate, known for accurately predicting Microsoft's multi-platform strategies. Nate the Hate claims the game will enjoy a timed exclusivity period on Xbox during the 2024 holiday season before making its way to the PS5. Insider Gaming corroborated this information, stating that several media outlets have received the details under NDA.
Microsoft's Shifting Exclusivity Strategy?
This potential PS5 release aligns with Microsoft's evolving approach to platform exclusivity. Previous reports from The Verge indicated Microsoft and Bethesda were considering expanding the reach of major Xbox titles, including Indiana Jones and Starfield, to other consoles. While initial acquisitions secured exclusivity, Microsoft's "Xbox Everywhere" initiative, which brought titles like Sea of Thieves and Hi-Fi Rush to other platforms, suggests a willingness to broaden availability for select games.
More Details at Gamescom?
Fans eagerly await further details. Gamescom Opening Night Live on August 20th, hosted by Geoff Keighley, promises a closer look at Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, potentially including a concrete release date. The event will also showcase other highly anticipated titles.
