Machine Games is doing it, I doubt they are using the Creation Engine.

Well, they certainly got Ford's likeness down. I know in previous games they tried to avoid it. Looks like a pretty cool game. Though kind of weird to go system exclusive on a global IP such as this.

If the trailer is game footage, I'd say no. It's already showing fast movement through larger areas than the Creation Engine can handle.

The Wikipedia article for the game says that it's using id Tech, but that might just be speculation given that I don't see any articles that confirm the information. Machine Games used id Tech in their Wolfenstein games, so it seems reasonable.

Sony has exclusive but global IP, such as the Spiderman games. And it's not weird, it's good business sense, if you want games to drive your console sales.

Slightly different situation there as Sony has the leverage via the movies (where they own the IP for) to make the games exclusive.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle doesn't roll off the tongue like the previous names. But Ill get used to it for such a wonderful looking game.

Yes, the 'Great Circle' in the new Indiana Jones game is a real thing: Let's go down this conspiracy rabbit hole together

In case you haven't heard the good news, the Nazi-punching experts at MachineGames revealed their next game during yesterday's Xbox Developer Direct stream: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. It was a strong debut for the long-awaited action adventure project, and in keeping with the Wolfenstein studio's speciality, we were pleasantly surprised to learn The Great Circle is a first-person game.

Watching Indy whip-trip a Nazi before popping another guy with his revolver was basically all I needed to see to get excited, but I'm also intrigued by the central mystery he'll be obsessing over: the "Great Circle" itself. We hear a brief explainer from Indy in the trailer:

"Throughout history, mankind has built sites of great spiritual significance. If you were to draw a line through these ancient sites around the globe, you get a perfectly aligned circle." At the end of the trailer, Indy discovers evidence of the "protectors of the Circuli Magni: The Great Circle

Hah, it kind of just came to me. I've got my Dad talking about stars all the time. It's got lore and stuff. So, kind of fits as a Indy title ;)

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is a far better title than Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.

This may be my top awaited game this year. I really need me some new Lara Croft or Indy adventures.
