Next week, Bethesda will release Update 3 for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, as announced. While full patch notes are pending, Bethesda’s tweet previews several improvements and fixes, including the addition of Nvidia DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation and DLSS Ray Reconstruction.
This update is highly anticipated by players hoping to resolve game-breaking bugs that have plagued the game since its December launch. Bethesda previously indicated February's update would enhance graphics and address issues preventing some players from completing the game or navigating certain areas (like vine climbing and squeezing through walls in Sukhothai). The extent to which these specific issues are addressed remains to be seen.
Launched on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and day-one on Game Pass (as a Microsoft-owned title), Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has already attracted 4 million players. MachineGames' title has received critical acclaim and multiple awards, including three at the D.I.C.E. Awards. A PlayStation 5 release is planned for this spring.
Harrison Ford, the iconic Indiana Jones himself, recently praised Troy Baker's portrayal of the character in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, stating in an interview with The Wall Street Journal that it demonstrates "you don't need artificial intelligence to steal my soul." Ford expressed his satisfaction with Baker's performance, emphasizing the talent and creative vision behind the successful portrayal, rather than any reliance on AI.
