As a seasoned gamer with decades of experience under my belt, I can confidently say that Indiana Jones and The Great Circle has piqued my interest like no other upcoming release in recent memory. With its ambitious scope, longer cutscenes than a feature-length movie, and unique first-person gameplay perspective, this title is shaping up to be a groundbreaking experience for the franchise.
Story Highlights
- Indiana Jones and The Great Circle is an ambitious new upcoming release by the makers of Wolfenstein.
- According to its creative director, the game will include more cutscenes than a feature-length movie.
- This is also MachineGames’ biggest game to date, and the longest as well that the studio has ever made.
The highly anticipated film “Indiana Jones and The Great Circle” is quickly approaching its release date. Prior to its official premiere, creative director Axel Torvenius and design director Jens Andersson sat down for a rapid-fire interview with MinnMax, revealing some intriguing insights about the upcoming action-adventure.
When asked about cutscenes in specific, one of the devs replied,
It’s roughly 3 hours and 40-45 minutes or something along those lines. It’s a lot.”
MachineGames primarily focuses on developing games within the Wolfenstein intellectual property, along with three iterations of the Quake series, one of them being quite modern, and an additional playable episode for the original Doom 2.
By far this is the biggest and longest game that MachinesGames has ever done.”
A game often associated with extended cutscenes is Hideo Kojima’s Death Stranding, which, as far as I know, clocks in at around 7 hours of total cutscene duration.

The first-person camera perspective is one thing that has been turning many people off about Indiana Jones and The Great Circle. I personally think it could add a new level of immersion to the whole experience; so does the director of the studio. It’s also been observed that the title will feature dynamic gameplay sequences that switch between first- and third-person on the fly.
In their own words, MachineGames’ game director, Jerk Gustafsson, shared that first-person gameplay is deeply ingrained in their studio, and they aimed to exploit this aspect to generate a highly engaging experience by placing players within the footsteps of history’s most renowned archaeologist. This unique approach differentiates our game from numerous action-adventure titles, offering an exceptional, one-of-a-kind experience that you won’t find anywhere else.
