Indiana Jones and the Great Circle coming to PS5 in ‘first half of 2025’
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is set to release later this year, with Microsoft reportedly eyeing a holiday 2024 launch window. Bethesda’s action-adventure title will be exclusive to PC and Xbox Series S/X at launch. That exclusivity, however, might not last long. According to an industry insider, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will be coming to PS5 next year. The rumor isn’t the first of its kind: earlier this year, it was reported that several first-party titles from Microsoft were being considered for launch on rival platforms from Sony and Nintendo, including triple-A Xbox exclusives like Starfield and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.

Developer MachineGames, Bethesda, and Microsoft have yet to reveal any plans for the game’s release on PS5. A first-party Microsoft title, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, is confirmed for release on PC, Xbox Series S/X, and Game Pass.
In February, multiple reports claimed that Microsoft was preparing to bring its exclusive games to PS5 and Nintendo Switch. One such report claimed that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle was being considered for a PS5 launch. The report, which cited a source with knowledge of Microsoft’s plans, had said that the Indiana Jones game was set to join a list of Xbox titles that could make their way to rival consoles.
Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer confirmed later that month that four Xbox exclusives would indeed be coming to PS5 and Nintendo Switch. He also confirmed that Bethesda’s triple-A releases like Starfield and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle would remain exclusive to Xbox and PC.
However, since then, there have been several reports that Xbox’s parent company is planning to release more first-party titles for the PS5 and Nintendo Switch.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle was revealed with a trailer at Microsoft’s Developer Direct showcase in January. The first-person shooter, action-adventure title is based on the Lucasfilm franchise and lets players play as the iconic Indiana Jones in an original story inspired by the films. The game does not have a confirmed release date, but is set to release sometime later this year on PC and Xbox.
