Indiana Jones and the Great Circle arrived towards the end of last year, but 2025 has been big for Machine Games' globe-trotting adventure. As well as drawing in waves of new players after landing on the PS5 back in April, the famous archaeologist also drew us into a fresh mystery with the release of The Order of the Giants DLC in September. Capped off with nominations at The Game Awards and the Golden Joysticks, Indy's latest video game adaptation continues to shine as bright as its many glittering artifacts.

Creative director Axel Torvenius says he feels an "overwhelming sense of joy" at seeing the positive reception that began last Christmas continue, with longtime players and newcomers showing love for the studio's take on the iconic character.
