Order of Giants story

The Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Order of Giants DLC is due to launch later this year on September 4, 2025, and we've had a brief look at the new Indy adventure having arrived at the Xbox Games Showcase. The PS5 port release has now given players ample time to catch up on Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, but we’ll have to wait just a little longer to don the fedora for some more adventuring.

In-game, we've already gotten a nudge towards the Order of Giants thanks to the secret ending that really put our puzzling to work. Here’s everything we know about the Order of Giants DLC for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.

While the Order of Giants DLC isn’t out yet, there are a few ways you can effectively pre-order it by buying a premium version of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle:

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Digital Premium Upgrade = $34.99/£34.99 (includes The Order of Giants DLC (when available) but does not include the base game)
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Digital Premium Edition = $99.99/£99.99 (includes the base game, The Order of Giants DLC (when available), and other digital items)
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Collector’s Edition = $189.99/€199.99 (includes the base game, The Order of Giants DLC (when available), and lots of other goodies)

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is on Xbox Game Pass, and it's a little unclear if Order of Giants DLC will be added to the service when it launches. You might have to buy the Digital Premium Upgrade above to play it with your Game Pass subscription. It will be available on all platforms, and part of the Xbox Play Anywhere scheme.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Order of Giants story

As was already teased towards the end of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, the Order of Giants DLC will continue to delve into the Nephilim Order, and presumably Locus (though how the developers will handle the tragic passing of Tony Todd is unclear). It was at first a little vague when it would take place, but it's now been confirmed that it's "set during the events of the main game". Even so, it'll feature new locations.

Expanding on the Vatican City portion of the game early on, it has Indy meet up with Father Ricci, a young priest who needs his help locating an artifact. To do so, he'll need to explore Rome, just outside the Vatican City, and the crypts and ancient sewers that lie beneath it.

All the while, the Cult of Mithras will try to stop Indiana Jones from getting to the bottom of what's going on, which sees him eventually contending with "the legend of a colossal beast" and "Emperor Nero's secret gladiator games". The story will also see Father Venture and Mussolini return, so get ready to punch more fascists.

It's interesting that Order of Giants takes place here, as the secret ending shows a bonus cutscene of a crashed Ark in ice and snow, and footprints leading away from it. We had assumed this meant Locus may have survived the space-folding climax of the base game, and he'd be involved here (as a Giant himself). But this may not be the case, unless there is more to come and more to be revealed about this DLC.

It's especially curious as as the note that can be collected from the vault that gets opened in the secret ending also pretty much confirms that the Ark is in Antarctica and reveals that there is likely an 18^th piece and location for the Great Circle there. A different note found in Iraq also suggests that the rock material the “allmaker” piece of the Great Circle is carved from is found in Antarctica, so it’s clearly significant. Could there be more DLC on the way, or will Indy's investigation in Rome pave the way for locations even further afield than it first seems?

Perhaps there’s a secret Nephilim Order temple, city, or spaceship buried in the ice (who can say when it comes to Indiana Jones?). Either way, it seems highly likely that Indy will be eventually be venturing (likely solo since Gina leaves Indy at the end of the main story) to the south pole in search of the Ark and Locus, but we’ll have to wait and see what's teased in the Order of Giants, and what else may come after. As our Indiana Jones and the Great Circle review suggests, we really enjoyed the game, so hopefully this DLC lives up to the main game’s strengths too.

If you’re nearing the end of Indy’s journey, you might need some help with the Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Royal Army uniform and key and perhaps the Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Nephilim Room puzzle.
