It begins in just a few hours’ time!
We’re almost ready to go with Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on Xbox Series X|S and PC! The official release date is December 9th, but the game is getting a weekend of “early access” for anyone who wants to pay a bit extra.
If you’re looking for the cheapest route to get Indiana Jones early access from December 6th onwards, it’s via the Premium Edition Upgrade. This version doesn’t actually include the base game itself — so it’s built for players who intend to access it via Game Pass instead — but you do get early access along with various other benefits:
Up to 3-Day Early Access
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle: The Order of Giants Story DLC
Digital Artbook
Temple of Doom™ Outfit
In terms of the best price, the Xbox Store is asking for £34.99 / $34.99 if you want the Digital Premium Upgrade, but other retailers are pricing it lower. CDKeys, for example, has it for £21.99 in the UK, and ShopTo has it for £23.99.

If you’re not planning to play on Xbox Game Pass after December 9th, and you still want to have access to Indiana Jones after that date, then you’ve got three options – wait for the 9th and get the normal version, buy the full Premium version now (but it’s pretty expensive) or get the ultra-luxurious Collector’s Edition. None of these methods are exactly cheap, but once again, you should find better prices than the Xbox Store is offering if you’re willing to shop around.
Another recommendation, if you’re happy to wait until next Monday, is to check out the £1 / $1 PC Game Pass trial instead. If you sign up now, you’ll get two weeks of PC Game Pass at no extra cost, which includes access to Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on December 9th. That’s an unbelievable deal if you’ve got the setup for it!
So, what are your plans for early access? Will you be getting it? Tell us in the poll and comments below.
