Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Played by More Than 4m People, Says Microsoft

Microsoft’s
latest
financial
report
contains
plenty
of
interesting
details
about
the
company’s
Xbox
division,

including
a
fairly
substantial
boost
in
Game
Pass
subscribers
on
PC.

But
buried
within
the
lengthy
report
was
a
single
sentence
that
finally
gives
us
a
glimpse
at
how
well

Indiana
Jones
and
the
Great
Circle

has
performed.

According
to
Satya
Nadella,
the
CEO
of
Microsoft,
Indy’s
latest
adventure
has
done
quite
well.

Coming
off
of
discussing
the
success
of
Black
Ops
6,
Nadella
had
this
to
say:
“And
we
saw
rave
reviews
of
Indiana
Jones
and
the
Great
Circle,
which
has
already
been
played
by
more
than
4
million
people.”


Indiana Jones and The Great Circle is the fourth movie we all wanted – Review

After
three
amazing
movies,
Indy
is
finally
back
starring
in
a
4th
adventure.
Despite
being
over
35
years
since
the
last
movie
(Fight
me)
this
new
adventure
from
MachineGames
makes
it
feel
like
it
was
yesterday!

Of
course,
“played”
is
the
important
word
here
as
Indiana
Jones
and
the
Great
Circle
was
available
on
Game
Pass
from
day
1.
The
topic
of
actual
sales
numbers
was
never
brought
up,
but
considering
game
sales
are
typically
very
low
on
Xbox
hardware
these
days
it
seems
safe
to
assume
that
the
vast
majority
of
those
4m
people
were
on
Game
Pass.

We
also
learned
that

Game
Pass

had
its
highest
ever
revenue
draw
this
last
quarter.
While
that
was
probably
almost
entirely
because
of
Black
Ops
6
launching,
at
least
a
tiny
bit
of
the
success
can
be
attributed
to
Indiana
Jones
and
the
Great
Circle.
At
least,
I
hope
it
can
be
because
that
game
is
bloody
awesome.

The
next
daring
adventure
for
Indy
will
occur
this
year
when
the
game
launches
on

PlayStation
5

which
could
potentially
result
in
millions
of
sales.

And
don’t
forget,
it
was
reported
that

Disney
were
so
pleased
with
the
game
that
they
picked
up
the
phone
to
discuss
more
projects.
