LucasArts: Still hope for next-gen Indy game (News)

May 5, 2009

There is "always hope" for a "next-gen" Indiana Jones game, LucasArts has said.

Speaking to VideoGamer.com, voice director David Collins revealed that the "next-gen" versions of Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings, a game due out for all major platforms except the 360 and PS3, were canned because of "timing" and "financial" reasons.

Development ended on PS3/360 Indiana Jones (News)

Feb 6, 2009

DarkZero: With the recent announcement that Lucasarts are working on Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings for Wii, DS, PS2 and the PSP, many people wondered what had happened with the "next gen" version of Indiana Jones that was highly boasted about a few years back, and if development of that game was happening, albeit quietly, concurrently with Staff of Kings.

However, this seems not to be the case, and Lucasarts have now confirmed they've decided to work solely on Staff of Kings, making a "strategic business decision" to end development of the 360/PS3 versions.

Despite rumors, LucasArts is 'committed' to new Indiana Jones game (News)

Jan 13, 2009

Joystiq Writes:
GN reports that "multiple sources" at LucasArts and "elsewhere" indicate that the developer's next-gen Indiana Jones game has been canceled; however, Joystiq has contacted LucasArts for an official statement and things don't appear so cut-and-dry.

According to a LucasArts representative, "LucasArts remains absolutely committed to the Indiana Jones franchise. While we are aware that fans have been eagerly awaiting additional information on the upcoming game, they can rest assured that details are forthcoming."

Well, that doesn't sound like the game is dead, although there's certainly wiggle room in that quote to speculate that the long-in-development title has been killed with another taking its place. Of course, that would just be our old friends Rumor and Speculation stopping by to say hi.

Exclusive: LucasArts still working on Indiana Jones for PS3 (News)

Dec 10, 2008

Slipping into the shadows of such titles as Star Wars: The Force Unleashed and Fracture, many people have forgotten about one of LucasArts' biggest projects, Indiana Jones.

With no word on the title's development since 2006, gamers have forgotten about the game or figured it was indefinitely shelved. However, speaking with PSU.com, LucasArts confirms the title is still in the works with new details soon on the way.

"LucasArts remains absolutely committed to the Indiana Jones franchise," said the LucasArts representative. "While we are aware that fans have been eagerly awaiting additional information on the upcoming game, they can rest assured that details are forthcoming."

For those of you not up to date on the new Indiana Jones title, the game will be utilizing much of the same technology found in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. This includes Natural Motion's Euphoria Engine, Pixelux's DMM technology and Havok physics. As of right now, there has been no concrete release date given, but we suspect it'll show up in 2009

LucasArts' internally developed Indiana Jones game (scheduled for release on PS3, Xbox 360 and DS) is "still in development," but the company is no longer referring to it by the "Indiana Jones 2007" codename. This likely signals a delay to coincide with the release of Indiana Jones 4 next year.

Indiana Jones - updated impressions (Preview)

Feb 21, 2007

Euphoria. Make a mental note, because youre going to be hearing a lot more of that word over the coming months. One, because for anyone even remotely interested in the worlds greatest adventurer (sorry, Lara), the sight of Dr. Jones on next-gen should be enough to induce - as the dictionary says - “a feeling of great (usually exaggerated) elation.” And two, because its the name of LucasArts self-created development tool, the beating heart at the center of the most realistic, most ...

Indiana Jones - first look (Preview)

May 17, 2006

In the E3 demonstration for the as-yet-unsubtitled brawler Indiana Jones, we watched as Indy handily disarmed some Triad thugs in a steamy, dingy back alley. Then he grabbed one by the lapels and threw him against a car. Then he did it again. And again. And again. Granted, the outcome was a little different each time, with the thug breaking the window with his head or bending backwards over the hood before slumping to the ground. From where we were sitting, it looked like a refined version of ...
