Xbox boss Phil Spencer has addressed the surprise revelation that first-party exclusive Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will release on PS5 in spring/Q2 2025 just a few months after its Xbox debut, stating Xbox is “a business”, and that “the bar is high in terms of the delivery we have to give back” to parent company Microsoft.
In an in-house interview with Xbox On, Spencer was not directly challenged about the decision to release Indiana Jones on PS5 so soon after its December Xbox debut, only insisted that, at that time, Xbox was “gonna learn” and “watch”, and “from our learning, we’re gonna do more”.
At that time, Spencer explicitly said that neither Starfield nor Indiana Jones and the Great Circle were one of the four games tipped to come to PS5, and whilst that’s true – Indiana Jones was not one of the four games mentioned; it’s actually the fifth – some fans have taken issue with Spencer’s framing of the issue.
