To celebrate 15 years as a studio, MachineGames has announced an anniversary update for Indiana Jones and The Great Circle that will add New Game Plus to the adventure game tomorrow, October 10. In addition, the free patch will feature an outfit from Raiders of the Lost Ark, voice language select, and other general fixes.
On the game’s website, MachineGames notes that New Game Plus and the Cairo outfit were highly requested from the community. New Game Plus unlocks after completing the main story and will let players keep their unlocked Adventure Books. Since Indy should be stronger, MachineGames recommends pushing the difficulty up a notch. Last but not least, there’s a new after-credits scene for players who finish Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on New Game Plus.
Meanwhile, the Cairo outfit sees Indy jacketless, and MachineGames is teasing more looks for the archaeologist over the coming months. As for the voice language select, the developer states: “You can mix and match any of the nine available voice languages with any of the 14 text languages.”
Last month, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle got The Order of Giants DLC, which sees the protagonist pair up with a young priest named Father Ricci in Rome. Next year, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will come to Switch 2, after hitting PS5 earlier this year. The game was originally released in late 2024 for PC and Xbox Series X|S.

Indiana Jones and The Great Circle Anniversary update patch notes
OTHER FEATURES
The Xbox Series X and S release now features a Power Saving mode. By default, the GPU will spin down with it is not being fully tasked. In addition, there is a Power Saving option in the Video section of the Options menu. When you activate this, the game will enter a power saving mode if you leave your controller idle for some time; resolution will lower and frame rate will be limited. As soon as you move the controller again the game will exit the power saving state.
We’re looking to add this future to other platforms in the future.
In anticipation of the upcoming release of the ROG Xbox Ally and ROG Xbox Ally X, we’ve added detection of those handhelds, and the game will automatically set suitable video quality settings for better performance.
GENERAL FIXES
