Indiana Jones' debut week in the U.S. market saw it rank second in sales, closely trailing another Xbox game.
==================================================================================
Indiana Jones is back, and this time, he's making waves in the video game industry. According to data shared by Circana executive director and analyst Mat Piscatella on Monday, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has been among the top-selling games in the U.S. since its debut on December 9, 2024.
The action-adventure game, developed by Bethesda Softworks and MachineGames, had a strong start, ranking as the second best-selling game in dollar sales during its full debut week ending Dec 14, 2024. It also made its mark on Xbox Series X|S consoles, being the third-most played game for the same week, according to Circana data.
Since its launch, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has consistently ranked within the Top 20 and even the Top 10 on various U.S. sales charts during its early months. In Q2 2025, it was listed as the 8th best-selling game on PlayStation platforms in the U.S. and appeared in the top 20 best-sellers across various platforms, including Xbox and PC.
However, reports in Q2 2025 show it dropping off the U.S. Top 20 best-selling list in May, indicating declining, but still significant, sales compared to newer releases. Despite this, the game has managed to maintain a position around #8 on PlayStation sales charts in the U.S., demonstrating continued cross-platform sales success.
It's worth noting that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle launched as a timed exclusive on Windows and Xbox Series X/S in December 2024, with a PlayStation 5 release following in April 2025. The game was also available on Xbox Game Pass alongside its standard edition launch. Players who purchased the Premium Edition or Premium Upgrade for Game Pass started playing on December 6, and these sales aren't counted for the following week.
As of August 2025, no comprehensive all-time U.S. sales ranking or total unit sales figure for the game have been publicly released. However, appearances in multiple top sellers lists and its timed exclusivity suggest solid performance domestically.
The game's success could potentially lead to more Indiana Jones games from MachineGames in the future. In fact, Activision's Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has dominated the charts since its launch, holding the number one spot, being the best-selling game of October and November in the U.S. However, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle's solid debut suggests a possible positive sales trend for the game as more data becomes available.
In conclusion, while exact cumulative sales rankings over the full period since December 2024 are not fully detailed, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has been a steady seller, frequently placing within the Top 20 and Top 10 on various U.S. sales charts during its first eight months. Its drop from the Top 20 in May 2025 suggests it has faced strong competition from new releases but remains a presence in the market. The upcoming PlayStation 5 version, scheduled to launch in Spring 2025, could further boost its sales and solidify its position in the gaming industry.
