The highly anticipated Indiana Jones and the Great Circle DLC, titled Order of the Giants, will launch on September 4, as confirmed by a new trailer. While the promotional material labels it a “launch trailer,” the release remains over a week away, leaving some to wonder about the full scope of this expansion. The adventure sends Indy back to Rome, where he delves into the myth of a colossal crusader buried beneath the city. His journey will take him from sunlit piazzas down into shadowy catacombs and forgotten subterranean passages.
This new chapter builds on the base game’s fascination with biblical giants, known as Nephilim, though how exactly it connects to the original narrative remains unclear. Will it expand on the early Vatican sequence, serve as an epilogue, or function as a standalone experience selected from the main menu? After the revelations of the main story, some players may question whether there’s still room for more ancient conspiracies. That said, the Vatican section was a highlight for many, praised for its rich setting and engaging design. If this DLC delivers another dense, explorable urban environment reminiscent of titles like Deus Ex, it could very well win over skeptics.
September is shaping up to be a monumental month for gaming releases. On the same day Order of the Giants arrives, Hollow Knight: Silksong also makes its long-awaited debut. While the Indiana Jones expansion has plenty of appeal, many are betting on the indie darling from Team Cherry to dominate sales charts. It’s shaping up to be a fascinating showdown between a blockbuster franchise and an indie powerhouse.
