As part of its Q2 FY 2025 financial presentation, SEGA has announced the sale of Amplitude Studios, the Paris-based studio known as the developer of Endless Space, Endless Legend, Dungeon of the Endless, Endless Space 2, Humankind, and more recently, Endless Dungeon. SEGA explained this concludes its wave of restructuring the European business, which previously included the sale of Relic Entertainment and substantial layoffs. The Group recorded an extraordinary loss of approximately ¥5.9 billion ($38.7 million) in the second quarter for the fiscal year due to the sale of overseas development studio Amplitude Studios SAS through a management buyout.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is a project in which many companies came together to create something special. As we've known for a while, the idea came from Bethesda Game Studios and Elder Scrolls/Fallout/Starfield franchise director Todd Howard, who then selected MachineGames to develop the game. Of course, since the franchise belongs to Lucasfilm, they had to be involved, too. In an interview published on Lucasfilm.com, Lucasfilm Games Executive Producer Craig Derrick praised Howard's concept: For an Indiana Jones adventure to truly shine, it needs a globe-trotting journey with a strong historical element—something grounded in reality yet wrapped in […]
Indiana Jones And The Great Circle is set to arrive this December on Xbox Series X/S and PC. (And later, on PS5.) And because it’s 2024, there are like 4 different versions of the game you can now pre-order. And one of the pricier editions is the only ...
NVIDIA had another big Gamescom 2024 announcement to make, although it is a bit staggered due to a later embargo compared to the others: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will join Cyberpunk 2077, Alan Wake 2, and Black Myth: Wukong in the very restricted club of PC games that support NVIDIA DLSS 3.5 and full ray tracing. Also known as path tracing, it was only viable for offline rendering and, therefore, limited to usage in movies and TV series until not long ago. It was only the arrival of upscalers and specifically frame generation techniques that allowed its real-time […]
During a pre-Gamescom 2024 remote briefing event held by Bethesda, we learned more about Indiana Jones and the Great Circle through a remote presentation and subsequent roundtable Q&A with two key developers: Game Director Jerk Gustafsson and Creative Director Axel Torvenius. This time, the developers at MachineGames focused on showing off gameplay: how Indiana interacts with the world around him, how he traverses the environment, and how he deals with the enemy. They also highlighted some of his key tools: the camera and journal. The developers claimed to have made the gameplay experience as interesting and authentic as possible. They […]
According to NateTheHate2 on X, Indiana Jones and The Great Circle will be released on PC and Xbox as a timed exclusive in December 2024. The timed window is supposedly six months, and a planned release on PlayStation 5 is planned for the first half of 2025. Microsoft Gaming purchased MachineGames, the developer behind this Indiana Jones game after it acquired Bethesda in 2021 for $7.5 billion. Because of that, it seems highly likely that the game will be an Xbox exclusive, with the game being available on day one on Xbox Game Pass for both PC and Console. Of […]
Wolfenstein developer MachineGames is known for their solid writing and penchant for diabolical nazi villains, which is probably what got them the gig making Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, but they also just know how to make a good shooter. The Wolfenstein games deliver a lot of guns-blazing, gory action, so will their Indiana Jones game be the same? Not necessarily. While being interviewed on the Official Xbox Podcast, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle director Jerk Gustafsson explained the goal is to make a “proper adventure game” that targets a “wider audience” than their previous hardcore shooters. As […]
Earlier this year, Xbox finally gave us a first peek at Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, the new first-person action-adventure under development at Wolfenstein developer under the watchful eye of producer Todd Howard. That first trailer certainly got tongues wagging, and delivered plenty of the puzzle solving and derring-do the series is known for, but, of course, fans wanted more. Well, today at the Xbox Games Showcase, we got a new Indiana Jones and the Great Circle trailer, which largely focuses on a scene set in the Himalayas. It looks like Great Circle has received a bit of a […]
As we head deeper into 2024, the traditional “E3” season (of course, E3 is dead now, but you catch my drift) for gaming announcements and showcases is coming up fast. In recent days we’ve begun to hear some murmurings about Microsoft’s big 2024 showcase, with Gears 6 reportedly being there, and now a few more potential details may have filtered out. According to The Verge’s Tom Warren, a longtime Microsoft insider, the 2024 Xbox Games Showcase will take place on Sunday, June 9. That lines up with past showcases, which typically take place on a Sunday shortly after Geoff Keighley’s […]
After weeks of rumors regarding Xbox games’ exclusivity and whether or not big-budget titles like Bethesda’s Starfield or the upcoming Indiana Jones and The Great Circle would end up on other consoles, we’ve got some clarification. The February 15 spec...
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is the latest Xbox exclusive game rumored to be in development for PlayStation 5, too. It all started earlier this month with Jeff Grubb and other insiders revealing that Hi-Fi Rush and Sea of Thieves would be going multiplatform to PlayStation and possibly Nintendo consoles. The rumor gained strength when texture files showing exclusive t-shirts for Nintendo and PlayStation users were datamined in Hi-Fi Rush. At first, it sounded like Microsoft just wanted to port older and/or less important titles to squeeze some additional revenue from other platforms. However, the floodgates opened a few […]
Let's be real: 2023's sheer quantity and quality of game releases are likely to remain unmatched for a long time, so 2024's most anticipated games list might look a bit puny by direct comparison. However, despite some lingering unknowns (will Dragon Age: Dreadwolf launch this year after the planned Summer reveal? Could Metroid Prime 4 be released as a Nintendo Switch 2 launch title?), even if nothing else happens, the calendar already offers a solid schedule of new games to look forward to. Here's our Top 10 most anticipated games of 2024. Action, RPG, Horror, Fighting, Adventure, Platform, Indie, Expansion/DLC, […]
By far, the biggest reveal at the second Xbox Developer Direct was Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. The new first-person action/adventure game in development at MachineGames looked great in its first presentation and isn't too far off, either, since it is slated to launch later this year on PC and Xbox Series S|X. Some may not recall it, but the game announced three years ago is being executive produced by Bethesda's Todd Howard, the man behind Elder Scrolls, the latest Fallout games, and Starfield. It was he who actually campaigned for it. In a new interview posted on the […]
The PlayStation 5 Pro brings considerable visual and performance improvements in several titles, including Resident Evil Village, Resident Evil 4 remake, Demon's Souls, and others. In the tests conducted by Brazil Pixel, the latest two entries in the CAPCOM survival horror series powered by the RE Engine show considerable performance improvements. Resident Evil Village, for example, runs at locked 120 frames per second in HFR without ray tracing at 1080p resolution, which is quite impressive to see on a console in a relatively recent game. The Resident Evil 4 remake, on the other hand, doesn't reach the same locked 120 […]
