It Is Sounding More and More Like Indiana Jones and The Great Circle Will Be a Timed Xbox Exclusive Before Coming To PlayStation

The gaming community is both excited and skeptical with the latest rumor about Indiana Jones and The Great Circle. The upcoming game, developed by MachineGames, might not stay exclusive to Xbox for long. 

Rumors from credible leaks have suggested that the game could be coming to the PS5 next year after its Xbox release this holiday season. This has led to lots of discussions online, especially since many expected the game to remain an Xbox exclusive, given

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Rumored to Be Coming to Playstation

According to a well-known insider, NateTheHate, Indiana Jones and The Great Circle will initially launch as an Xbox and PC exclusive this December. But it looks like this exclusivity window might only last a few months before the game eventually heads to PlayStation 5 in the first half of 2025, likely six months later.

MachineGames’ Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will release on Xbox & PC this holiday (Dec) as a timed console exclusive.

After this timed-exclusive window expires, Indiana Jones & the Great Circle is planned to come to PlayStation 5 in the first half of 2025.

While there’s still some uncertainty about when the official announcement will happen, it wouldn’t be surprising if this information drops at a major event like Gamescom 2024 this weekend.

’s broader strategy with Xbox titles. 

Lately,

has been more flexible with its “exclusive” titles, letting them pop up on PlayStation after a while. This trend could hint at a new approach where

prioritizes broader reach over strict exclusivity, unlike Starfield.

After all, getting games into as many hands as possible could be more profitable and allow it to stay competitive, especially since the PS5 has been outselling the Xbox Series X/S by a massive margin.

What This Means for the Future of Xbox Exclusives

Interestingly, Indiana Jones and The Great Circle wouldn’t be the first exclusive to eventually appear on PlayStation. Earlier this year, games like Hi-Fi Rush, Pentiment, Sea of Thieves, and Grounded, all of which were previously Xbox exclusives, made their way to Sony’s console and shot up to the top of the charts.

Even *****: The Dark Ages, another Bethesda title, was announced for both Xbox and PS5 from the get-go. This trend of timed exclusivity, followed by a PlayStation release, seems to be becoming more common.

When MachineGames first announced its work on an Indiana Jones game, there were talks about which platforms the game would land on. Given

’s acquisition of ZeniMax, many assumed the game would be an Xbox console exclusive. 

However, because Indiana Jones is a Disney-owned IP, others argued that Disney would push for a broader release to maximize sales.

On top of this, with Gamescom 2024 right around the corner and the confirmation that the game will be featured at the show, fans are on high alert for any official news.

The potential for a PlayStation release is extremely exciting for a lot of gamers. This would align with the idea that the PS5’s larger market share is hard to ignore, especially for a franchise as iconic and as big as Indiana Jones.

Are you hoping that the game will come to Playstation 5? Let us know in the comments.
