Indiana Jones and the Great Circle being a first-person only game "was a given" from the start because "if you're going to be Indiana Jones, you need to look through his eyes"

There was never a world where Indiana Jones and the Great Circle would be anything other than a first-person adventure game, says developer MachineGames.

At a Develop:Brighton talk attended by GamesRadar+, MachineGames design director Jens Andersson says first-person "was a given for us" and that "there was no choice for us, we love that perspective. It's a great way of telling stories."
