New "Deep Dive Gameplay Trailer" for INDIANA JONES AND THE GREAT CIRCLE
Bethesda has released a new trailer for its awesome-looking video game Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, which was created by developer MachineGames.
The new trailer offers a deep dive into the gameplay of the first-person action-adventure game. The trailer introduces the story, allies you'll meet on your journey, multiple locations you'll get to explore, tools to aid you on your adventure, puzzle-solving, combat, and much more.
The game is set during the classic era of Indy, with an original story set between Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Last Crusade. Indy finds himself facing off against sinister forces. From the whip and revolver to his trusty journal and camera, you’ll need everything he’s got to unravel the mystery of the Great Circle.
The game will allow players to choose their own path through enemy encounters, whether they want to go play in stealth mode or run around guns blazing and whips snapping.
The year is 1937, “sinister forces are scouring the globe for the secret to an ancient power connected to the Great Circle, and only one person can stop them - Indiana Jones.”
The game will also feature lots of puzzles, but many of them will be optional and off the beaten path. It’s also revealed that the action will move to a third-person perspective as you watch Indy.
The director of the game, Jerk Gustafsson, previously talked about the game saying that it’s "closest to" the films Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Last Crusade.
Gustafsson explained: "We spent countless hours just re-watching the films – especially the two movies that are closest to the game, which are Raiders of the Lost Ark and the Last Crusade.”
This is a game that Todd Howard has been trying to get made for over a decade. During a previous interview, he explained: "I am a giant Indiana Jones fan. It can be brought to video games in a unique way.
“The game is obviously: you're exploring stuff. It's about him. So if you're playing the game, how do you feel that you are indeed playing versus just watching? [...] We'll talk next year."
The game will be released on Xbox Series X|S and PC on December 9th.
