Indiana Jones and the Great Circle: A PS5 Release on the Horizon?

Reports suggest that Bethesda's Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, slated for release on Xbox Series X/S and PC later this year, may arrive on PlayStation 5 in the first half of 2025.

This news comes from industry insider Nate the Hate, who has a track record of accurate leaks regarding Microsoft's multi-platform plans. Nate the Hate claims the game will enjoy a timed exclusivity period on Xbox during the 2024 holiday season, before launching on PS5. This information has been corroborated by Insider Gaming, citing NDAs with various media outlets.

Shifting Sands: Xbox's Evolving Exclusivity Strategy

This potential PS5 release aligns with speculation surrounding Microsoft's approach to platform exclusivity. Earlier reports from The Verge indicated that Microsoft and Bethesda were considering expanding the reach of major Xbox titles, including Indiana Jones and Starfield, to other consoles. While initial acquisitions secured exclusivity, Microsoft's "Xbox Everywhere" initiative, which brought titles like Sea of Thieves and Hi-Fi Rush to competing platforms, suggests a willingness to broaden their release strategy.

"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," Nate the Hate tweeted.
