Will Indiana Jones and the Great Circle release on PS5?

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will be released on PlayStation 5 in Spring 2025. First, the title launches for Xbox and PC on Dec. 9.

However, a February 2024 report from The Verge indicated a PS5 launch was being strongly ‘considered’ as Microsoft weighed its options amid a turbulent period in Xbox history. Though fans shouldn’t expect a day and date release, a PS5 port could arrive “some months later” in 2025.

This news made the rounds amid a string of reports surrounding Microsoft’s supposed change in strategy.

Seeking to earn a little extra from software sales, the company is reportedly open to bringing many of its platform exclusives over to rival consoles.

We’re focused on these four games and learning from the experience.”

From Halo: The Master Chief Collection to Starfield, there are many major Xbox titles PlayStation owners could soon get their hands on, with Indiana Jones joining a growing lost of franchises making the leap.
