I actually bought an Xbox Series X the day they showed the first video of this game (despite already owning an PS5 and the Series X lacking any real killer exclusives) and I faithfully waited until it was released. This was the system seller for me and so, my hype level was through the roof when I finally got to play it.
It did not disappoint, it actually exceeded my expectations. It has the look, the feel and the spirit and everything that makes Indiana Jones awesome; even more so than the last two movies. I was excited to explore, to find out what happened next in the story and itโs very well worth the price of admission. It was made by people that love the films and know how to make a fun game; most of the game mechanics seem overwhelming and annoying at first, but once you get the hang of it and see patterns, it becomes second nature and gives way to the story and exploration. Characters are classic Indy archetypes and the man himself is brought back to life via amazing animation and a pitch perfect voice actor.
If you are even a little interested in the Indiana Jones franchise, get it. If you are a fan of the filmsโฆyou should already be playing this!
