Originally, Steven Spielberg wanted to direct a James Bond movie, but he was seduced by George Lucas and his idea of an archaeologist solving mysteries who was, according to his friend, basically like Agent 007. In 1981, the world saw the birth of Indiana Jones with Raiders of the Lost Ark, and over the years its legend has grown and grown, overshadowed by the last two installments, which were more disoriented than anything else. Until now.
The adventure returns
In Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, we will see the adventurer in all his splendor, with the face of Harrison Ford (though not his voice) and fighting, as it could not be otherwise, against the Nazis. Because sometimes a video game has to come around to remind us who the good guys and the bad guys are in the world. It is an exciting, lively trailer, with a story that is reminiscent of the first trilogy of movies.
The game will take place between the events of Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Last Crusade (that is, 1937, probably) and, from what we see, we will have to use our fists wisely, solve puzzles, jump between planes, and in general, become the most famous archaeologist in the history of pop culture—with the seal of quality from Bethesda and MachineGames (Wolfenstein: The New Order, Youngblood).
It is important to note that this is not the first Indy game we’ve seen, far from it: in 1982 an adaptation of the first movie appeared for Atari 2600 and over the years its legend has grown, with Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis being the most iconic. The last original game before this Great Circle appeared in 2009 to critical disappointment. Hopefully, Bethesda hasn’t pulled another Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings. Fingers crossed.
