As the cold weather settles in and you’re preparing to keep warm by staying indoors, there’s no better time to dive into a new game – especially one that sends you on a globe-trotting adventure. Fortunately, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, the new FPS and RPG built by Wolfenstein’s MachineGames, and published by Fallout and Skyrim legend Bethesda, perfectly fits the bill. If you’re planning on buying it, there’s a better price on Fanatical than anywhere else.
The iconic treasure hunter is a great adventurer, so it’s no surprise that his latest tale makes for one of the best action-adventure games. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle was developed by MachineGames, creators of some of the best PC games (including the superb Wolfenstein The New Order), so you know you’re in for a treat with this mystery-solving romp across the world.
While I have yet to finish the game, I’m loving it so far. Troy Baker does a wonderful job at capturing the voice and spirit of Harrison Ford’s young Indiana Jones, and the game offers a level of immersion within Jones’ escapades that you can’t get from the big screen. Using his trusty tools (such as the iconic whip) is just as exciting as you’d expect, while the narrative tells an enticing story that keeps you glued to the screen.
While it only came out on Monday December 9, (if you don’t count the early access period, of course), Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has already got a discount, with Fanatical offering 16% off both editions of the game. While it’s not a huge price cut, if you were already looking to buy the game, it’s some extra savings you can spend on more games, because that backlog ain’t gonna grow itself.
That means you can grab Indiana Jones and the Great Circle for just $58.79 / £50.39, netting you a saving that’s worth its weight in hidden gold. Alternatively, you can grab the premium edition for $83.99 / £72.73, which offers some cool cosmetics as well as the upcoming The Order of the Giants expansion.
In any case, you’re getting a brilliant game for the holidays with Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. You may find an experience worthy of the best single-player games list, especially if you’re a fan of the archaeologist-turned-adventure hunter.
