Indiana Jones and the Great Circle comes to Switch 2 next year

Prior to its release on the Xbox Series X|S last year, Microsoft confirmed that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle would also be swinging its way onto PS5 in 2025. Sure enough, the game arrived in April of this year after 4 months of exclusivity on Xbox. Now Indiana Jones is set to take a (whip)crack at the Switch 2, with The Great Circle coming to Nintendo’s latest handheld-hybrid some time next year.

Announced during Gamescom Opening Night Live, Machine Games’ well-received first-person action-adventure title Indiana Jones and The Great Circle is officially coming to the Nintendo Switch 2 some time in 2026 – marking the first game from Microsoft to make the jump to Switch 2.

Of course, the Xbox console maker has brought other various games to Nintendo in the past, with the likes of Ori and the Blind Forest, Grounded and Pentiment all landing on the original Switch. That said, Indiana Jones should mark the first game developed for the Switch 2 specifically.

Interestingly, many fans expected Call of Duty to be the first Switch 2 game from Microsoft, as part of the Activision Blizzard acquisition terms required them to bring COD to Nintendo platforms. Of course, the upcoming Black Ops 7 could wind up coming to Switch 2 eventually, but not at launch.

As such, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle currently stands as the first Switch 2 title from Microsoft. It will be interesting to see how the game performs both technically and financially when it arrives on Nintendo’s platform sometime next year.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
