The Xbox and PC versions of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle are set to be released in a staggered manner across two dates. An early access period kicks off on Friday, Dec. 6, followed by the full launch on Monday, Dec. 9. On the other hand, those with PS5 have to wait until spring 2025.

Uncover the Release Details of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

How to Play Indiana Jones and the Great Circle in Early Access

To play Indiana Jones and the Great Circle in early access, you have several purchase options. You can acquire the game through specific editions that grant not only three days of early access but also access to the “The Order of Giants” story DLC when it releases. Additionally, you'll get a digital artbook and the “Temple of Doom” in-game outfit. These added features enhance the early access experience.

It's important to note that only those with the Premium Edition, the Premium Upgrade, or the Collector’s Edition can enjoy the early access benefits on both PC and Xbox. The times for early access and the standard release on Monday will likely be the same for these editions.

What Time Does Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Release in Early Access?

Due to its global nature, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle technically enters early access on Thursday, Dec. 5, in the Americas. In the rest of the world, it begins on Friday, Dec. 6. The specific release time in your time zone depends on your geographical location.

For example, if you're in a certain region, the early access time might be 8 AM local time. This timing applies to both PC and Xbox users with the eligible editions. It's crucial to be aware of these times to make the most of the early access period.

Is Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on Game Pass?

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will be playable through Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass, but only from the standard release date of Monday, Dec. 9. If you wish to play three days earlier in early access, you can purchase the Premium Upgrade, provided you have one of the relevant subscriptions. This is similar to how Starfield worked last year.

Make sure to check which version of Game Pass you own, as Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will not be available for Standard and Core subscribers. Understanding these details will help you plan your gaming experience accordingly.
