Pay $100 for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle early access, get worse graphics

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

Uncover one of history’s greatest mysteries in a first-person, single-player adventure. The year is 1937, sinister forces are scouring the globe for the secret to an ancient power connected to the Great Circle, and only one person can stop them - Indiana Jones™.

If you've paid the extra cash to play Indiana Jones and the Great Circle when it launches in early access tonight, then prepare for disappointment if you were hoping to max out the graphics settings. According to Nvidia, you won't be able to enable full ray tracing (path tracing) in the early access game, with this feature only being available when the game officially launches later in December.

All the game's graphical presets will use ray tracing in some form or another, resulting in the surprisingly demanding Indiana Jones and the Great Circle system requirements. However, the full ray tracing specs looked set to offer a visual treat to owners of the best graphics card models available right now, with Nvidia GeForce RTX 4000 cards required for every tier. In fact, the Ultra specs require a GeForce RTX 4090, and even that needs to use frame generation.
