Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Guide Order of Giants DLC Guide.jpg

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle landed as an Xbox exclusive and has since expanded to PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch 2. Three editions are on sale right now, and each one bundles different content at a very different price point. Before you spend anything, here is exactly what each version includes and which one actually makes sense for your situation.

Choose your edition wisely

Choose your edition wisely

What platforms is Indiana Jones and the Great Circle available on?

The game runs on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2. The Switch 2 version launched on May 12, 2026, making it the most recent platform addition. All three editions are available across these platforms, though availability at specific retailers may vary by version.

The story is set in 1937, slotting neatly between Raiders of the Lost Ark and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Indiana Jones investigates a globe-spanning mystery weeks after leaving Marion Ravenwood, which means the game's globetrotting structure, covering locations like The Vatican, the pyramids of Egypt, and The Himalayas, fits the film timeline without contradicting canon.

info
The game is classified as a stealth action-adventure, so expect puzzle elements alongside the whip-cracking combat. If you enjoy adventure games with strong narrative hooks, this one fits squarely in that category.

What do you get with the Standard Edition?

The Standard Edition is priced at $69.99 and covers the core game. Some retailers bundle the lion-tamer whip and Indy's traveling suit outfit from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade as a bonus, though this varies by store. Confirm at checkout whether your retailer includes these extras before assuming they are part of the package.

For players who want to try the game without committing to extra content, this is the entry point. The base campaign alone is a full globetrotting adventure, and the stealth mechanics and puzzle design have drawn strong comparisons to the best action-adventure games of the past decade.

What does the Premium Edition add?

The Premium Edition was listed at $99.99 but has been spotted on sale for as low as $25.99. That discount, if still available, makes it the most interesting value proposition right now. Check current pricing before making a decision.

Beyond everything in the Standard Edition, the Premium Edition includes:

  • The Order of Giants story DLC
  • A digital artbook
  • Indy's Temple of Doom outfit from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

The Order of Giants DLC is the main draw here. It is a full story expansion, and if you want to get the most out of the game's world, skipping it means leaving content on the table. Our Order of Giants DLC guide covers all the mysteries, safe codes, puzzle solutions, and artifact locations if you need help once you are inside.

info
If the Premium Edition sale price is still active, it undercuts the Standard Edition's value significantly. Check current pricing before defaulting to Standard.

What makes the Collector's Edition worth the price?

The Collector's Edition is priced at $189.99. It includes everything from the Premium Edition and adds a set of physical collectibles that are genuinely unusual for a modern game release.

Physical extras include:

  • A globe with hidden storage (described as a puzzle to open, not just a prop)
  • A special Steelbook case
  • An Allmaker relic replica
  • A new adventure journal

The globe with hidden storage is the standout item. It functions as an actual puzzle object, which is a clever design choice for a game built around puzzle-solving. If you are a collector or a serious fan of the franchise, the physical items alone justify the price gap over the Premium Edition for the right buyer.

warning
The Collector's Edition is primarily aimed at franchise collectors. If you just want to play the game and the DLC, the Premium Edition (especially at the discounted price) covers all in-game content without the physical premium.

Which edition should you buy?

The answer depends almost entirely on whether the Premium Edition sale is still running. At $25.99, it is the obvious pick for anyone who wants the full in-game experience. At full price ($99.99), the Standard Edition at $69.99 becomes more competitive unless the DLC specifically appeals to you.

The Collector's Edition makes sense for one type of buyer: the franchise fan who wants a shelf piece. The globe puzzle and Steelbook are genuinely well-designed physical items, but they do not add anything to the game itself.

Pro tip: Check multiple retailers before buying. The Premium Edition discount may not be permanent, and availability across Xbox, PS5, and Switch 2 versions can differ by platform.
