Indiana Jones Goes on an All-New Adventure in September

The adventures of Indiana Jones are probably done on the big screen, but on the small screen, they’re just getting started. Months after the release of the excellent Indiana Jones and the Great Circle video game, the companies behind it just announced some new downloadable content, and it’s giant. Literally.

The Order of Giants is the title of the DLC for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, and it’ll be available September 4. In the main game, a giant performed by the late, great Tony Todd plays a crucial role and along the way, Indy gets many, many teases to a deeper mythology with his people. Now, it seems, Indy is going to learn even more when he discovers a whole new city under Rome. Here’s the trailer.

The video game The Great Circle is set between the events of Raiders of the Lost Ark and Last Crusade, and The Order of Giants DLC is set during the events of The Great Circle. So, basically, that means any major events that may or may not happen at the end of the game won’t be impacted. But a lot will happen anyway.

“What starts out as a standard treasure hunt quickly becomes treacherous as Indy travels deep below the streets of Rome, exploring ancient crypts, visiting new locations like the ruins of the Colosseum, and coming face to face with an enemy that lurks in the shadows,” the official Lucasfilm blog reads. “Players can expect to solve a number of intricate puzzles while traversing Rome’s ancient sewer system, the Cloaca Maxima, and beyond. And in true Indiana Jones fashion, you’ll want to keep your eyes peeled for danger as members of a frightening cult sneak around in the shadows and attempt to stop Indy through any means. There may even be a few familiar faces making a return too!”

So basically, Bethesda and Machine Games are giving us an entire new section of the game, with a story that works to deepen our understanding of its already fascinating lore. And, it sounds like we might get more Tony Todd too, which is incredibly exciting. His role in the game is already fantastic that the chance to see more of him, and learn more about the ancient, mysterious history that drives his character, could be super cool.

I had an absolute, nostalgic blast playing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle and was definitely upset when it was over. Now, though I’ve at least got one more adventure to look forward to before Indy’s new game goes off into the sunset.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is now available on Xbox Series X | S consoles, PlayStation 5, PC, and Game Pass. The Order of Giants DLC hits all those places September 4.
