- Indiana Jones and the Great Circle's Gamescom 2024 trailer has divided players into groups, but most aren't happy with it.
- For PlayStation players, the announcement seems to be so casual that they took it as disrespectful.
- On the other hand, players aren't happy with the first-person perspective of the game, though they praised the trailer.
Gamescom 2024 has started, and as soon as the event launched, one after another surprising update started making fans overwhelmed. This event has been scheduled to run from August 21 to 25, and this is the time when developers can announce further updates for their upcoming titles. However, one Bethesda update has attracted all the Day 1 attention.
After Starfield massively disappointed them, players have been looking forward to getting Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Gamescom not only revealed the launch date but also highlighted another surprising update.
Gamescom 2024 Revealed What Players Have Been Demanding for Long
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is the upcoming action-adventure game based on the Indiana Jones franchise. When the initial trailer for the game was released, players seemed to be upset with it, as they found more story than action. Still, they have been waiting eagerly to jump into the archeological adventure.
On Gamescom 2024 Day 1, Bethesda released the latest trailer, which looks impressive, and along with that, Microsoft and Bethesda revealed that the game will launch on PC and Xbox on December 9, 2024. Interestingly, this game will be a Day 1 Game Pass release.
However, among all these, what has attracted the most attention is the update that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will come on PlayStation 5 during spring 2025. Though the date is not stated, this news has created a stir among the community.
This is speculated to be part of the strategy that Microsoft will release some of its exclusive games on PlayStation. After Hi-Fi Rush and Sea of Thieves, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is going to be the third game to break Microsoft exclusivity and come to Sony.
PlayStation Fans Are Not Happy With Microsoft’s Announcement Technique
Microsoft and Sony have been rivals in the console market since the Xbox and PlayStation were launched. Even after decades, this rivalry hasn’t yet been pacified, regardless of some exclusive games going to the other platform, breaking their exclusivity.
As the new trailer for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle was launched, players all noticed that the screen announcing that the game would launch on PS5 lasted only a few seconds. As if Microsoft casually shared the news and moved on.
On Reddit, this topic became a hot one, and some offended players mentioned, “That Spring 2025 PS5 screen went crazy fast.”
Some players found it disrespectful for them to pass the screen so fast.
A few players got offended by Microsoft revealing the PS5 release like nothing and moving on casually to the next screen.
Aside from this controversy, there’s something more. Players are not convinced by the first-person gameplay.
Even a lot of players mentioned they are no longer interested in playing the Indiana Jones game.
Whether this game will gain the expected popularity or succumb to failure is still unsure. For now, players can check what Starfield players are demanding from Bethesda.
