As a seasoned gamer who has spent countless hours navigating through various virtual worlds, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and a tinge of disappointment upon hearing about the length of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. On one hand, I’m thrilled at the prospect of diving back into the iconic world of Indiana Jones, with its rich storyline and immersive cinematics. On the other, 12 to 14 gameplay hours might seem a bit short compared to some of the epic adventures I’ve embarked on recently.
The end of the wait is nearly here! You can catch Indiana Jones and the Great Circle in cinemas starting from December 9, unless you’ve already paid over $100 for an early viewing on December 6.
In simple terms, the upcoming series of Indy’s escapades is designed to be a single-player narrative journey. The enjoyment and value of the game primarily depend on the duration of the storyline.
Based on the data from Brandon Morgan at Insider Gaming, the figures could potentially disappoint some gamers.
How Long Is Indiana Jones and the Great Circle?
In regular English, the standard version of the game “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle” is sold for $69.99. This price point has become common for narrative-focused AAA single-player games.
According to the most recent data, playing through Indiana Jones and the Great Circle’s storyline typically lasts between 12 to 14 hours of gameplay.
Although it’s not unusually lengthy, some gamers might feel let down compared to other solo games around the same price point, such as Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, which offer approximately 20 hours of gameplay.
Conversely, the movie “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle” contains a multitude of scenes that could fill up two entire movies.
MachineGames’ creative directors, Axel Torvenius and Jens Andersson, previously mentioned that the game features around 3 hours and 45 minutes of cinematic scenes.
In a natural and easily understood manner, the cutscenes within this game could provide an incredibly realistic Indiana Jones movie-like encounter, not seen for over a decade.
As an ardent admirer, I can say that MachineGames dedicated themselves to capturing the essence of Indiana Jones, leveraging continuous access to Lucasfilm resources. They aimed to embody George Lucas’s and Steven Spielberg’s unique visions for the iconic character.
Absolute Cinema, But Is It Worth It?
The burning question after all this is, well, is Indiana Jones and the Great Circle worth it?
There will be no concrete answer until reviews are out, but if you want to crunch numbers (a capital sin when talking about art, but it is what it is), go ahead.
Playing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle equates to approximately $5 for every hour spent gaming. If you’re mainly interested in the cutscenes, it amounts to more than $18.60 per hour. However, taking into account that you get both elements, your entertainment value comes out to be around $3.94 per hour.
If you want to hit up the AMC in Queens, tickets go from $13.99 to $21.99, for around 2 hours of movies and another solid 30 minutes wasted on trailers you don’t care about. That is without counting the overpriced snacks, drinks, and transport.
If to entertain this silly exercise, it is up to you to decide. Is going to the cinema worth it? If yes, then you get even better value from Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, on top of probably your only chance to witness a new authentic Indiana Jones experience.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle comes out December 9 for PC, Xbox, and PlayStation 5.
