Indiana Jones and The Great Circle's first expansion, The Order of the Giants, now has a release date — and it's only a few months' away.
The Order of the Giants will arrive on September 4, 2025, a brief teaser shown during today's Xbox Games Showcase 2025 revealed. That's for all platforms: PC, Xbox Series X/S, and yes, the newer PlayStation 5 version of the game too.
Indiana Jones and The Great Circle was one of the best games of 2024, and more of it is a very good thing. It looks like we'll be seeing more of the game's mysterious race of forerunner Nephilim Order giants in this expansion — though whether that also means more of the late Tony Todd's character of Locus remains to be seen.

Intriguingly, The Order of Giants sounds like it will be set within the narrative of the existing game, and build on its existing Rome location. Jones will begin the DLC's storyline by speaking to a new character, Father Ricci, who's seeking (yet another) mysterious artifact.
"One of the most satisfying parts of developing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle was the opportunity to create the Nephilim Order, the secret society of giants formed by descendants of fallen angels working to atone for their ancestral sins,” production director John Jennings said in a statement today.
“That story spans thousands of years and this DLC has given us the opportunity to develop further upon their lore and look at other aspects not covered in the initial story campaign. There’s something new and unexpected to tell here for fans of the game, and we can’t wait for people to be able to play it for themselves.”
Beyond and beneath Rome, players will visit new areas of the city and its ancient sewer system, somehow take part in Emperor Nero’s secret gladiator games, and face off with the Cult of Mithras (yet another!) secet organisation.
