Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is getting another update to celebrate developer MachineGames 15th birthday. The big news here is the addition of a New Game+ mode, which is always a good time.
This mode will be available upon finishing the main story and most of the upgrades carry through, including adventure books (skills) and medicine bottles. Currency also follows from the first playthrough, as do any unspent adventure points. Players who complete this mode will be treated to a new ending sequence after the credits.
The update also brings the iconic Cairo outfit that Indy wore in Raiders of the Lost Ark. This outfit can be worn whenever he isn't wearing a disguise. The studio promises more outfits are coming in the near future.
There's even a new voice language section tool. This lets people mix and match any of the nine available voice languages with the fourteen text languages. "Prefer to hear the original English performances with subtitles in your native language? Want to try a new combination? The choice is yours," the company wrote in a blog post.
There are also plenty of bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements accompanying this update. Finally, the game is adding software to detect the upcoming ROG Xbox Ally and Ally X handhand devices and will automatically adjust the video quality for better performance. The update drops on October 10 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC.
For the uninitiated, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is a first-person adventure that puts players in the shoes of the titular hero. It's a fun game, but likely the best Indiana Jones movie since The Last Crusade. The story and acting are just that good. MachineGames recently dropped some DLC for the game and announced that it's coming to the Nintendo Switch 2 next year.
