The Bethesda game Studio has confirmed that a new Indiana Jones game is currently under development and has been created by Wolfenstein developer MachineGames. A short statement was published via Twitter by Bethesda describing the project as an original story and not based on any existing Indiana Jones films currently available for the fifth Indiana Jones film already confirmed and in the early stages of production.
Unfortunately Bethesda explained that it will be “some time before we have more to reveal” – “but we’re very excited to share today’s news”.
“A new Indiana Jones game with an original story is in development from our studio, @MachineGames, and will be executive produced by Todd Howard, in collaboration with @LucasfilmGames. It’ll be some time before we have more to reveal, but we?re very excited to share today?s news!”

Excitement and Speculation
The announcement has sparked a wave of excitement and speculation among fans of the Indiana Jones franchise and gaming enthusiasts alike. The collaboration between MachineGames, known for their work on the critically acclaimed Wolfenstein series, and Bethesda, a powerhouse in the gaming industry, promises a high-quality gaming experience. The involvement of Todd Howard, a prominent figure in the gaming world known for his work on the Elder Scrolls and Fallout series, adds another layer of anticipation.
Fans are eager to see how the developers will bring the adventurous spirit of Indiana Jones to life in a video game format. The promise of an original story means that players can look forward to new adventures and challenges that are not tied to the existing film narratives. This opens up a world of possibilities for creative storytelling and innovative gameplay mechanics.
What to Expect
While details about the game are still scarce, there are a few things that fans can reasonably expect based on the developers’ previous work. MachineGames has a reputation for creating immersive and engaging first-person shooter experiences, as seen in the Wolfenstein series. It is likely that the new Indiana Jones game will feature a similar level of detail and craftsmanship.
The game could potentially explore various iconic locations around the world, much like the films, and include a mix of action, puzzle-solving, and exploration. The use of historical and mythical elements, a hallmark of the Indiana Jones franchise, could provide a rich backdrop for the game’s narrative.
Moreover, the collaboration with Lucasfilm Games suggests that the game will stay true to the spirit of the Indiana Jones character and universe. Fans can expect to see familiar elements such as ancient artifacts, hidden temples, and, of course, the iconic whip and fedora.
