The latest Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase closed with none other than Bethesda Softworks and Todd Howard announcing some major titles coming to the Switch 2. Leading the charge is Indiana Jones and the Great Circle by MachineGames. Available for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC, it’s coming to Nintendo’s platform on May 12th.
Check out the first trailer below. Set between the first and second movies in the franchise, it sees famed archaeologist Indiana Jones (with Harrison Ford’s likeness and Troy Baker’s voice) involved in a new mystery. It’s called the Great Circle and encompasses the entire globe, with the Nazis led by Emmerich Voss after its power.
Racing against time, Jones must uncover it first or die trying. While taking place from first-person (with the occasional third-person view), Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is more of an immersive sim shooter. You can sneak around, distract enemies with environmental objects, engage in fisticuffs (or use his signature whip), and platform across structures.
Pre-orders start today for Nintendo Switch 2 – check out our review of the PS5 version for more details, or learn more about The Order of Giants DLC. Even if you don’t pick up the latter, there are still updates such as New Game+ to dive into.
