Indiana Jones Returns: PlayStation Plus Premium Offers Classic Adventure Game This January

Fans of the adventurous Indiana Jones series have something exciting to anticipate as a classic title makes a return. With the recent resurgence of interest sparked by the acclaimed release from Machine Games, the creators behind Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, which is set for a PS5 launch in spring 2025, many are eager for more. While there’s speculation about its potential availability on other platforms like Switch 2, Sony has announced a treat for PlayStation Plus users.

This month, starting January 21, PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers will be able to access Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings, which was first launched in 2009, this title marked a late entry in the PlayStation 2 lineup and represents the last significant installment in the franchise. The game introduces a brand new narrative in an action/adventure format, featuring puzzle-solving elements and vehicular gameplay. It was initially available on multiple platforms, including PS2, Wii, PSP, and Nintendo DS, and was meant to accompany another Indiana Jones project that was planned for PS3 and Xbox 360 but ultimately canceled.

Even though Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings didn’t achieve critical acclaim at the time upon its launch, it claimed the title of the most recent Indiana Jones adventure for an extended period. The game provides an enjoyable experience filled with familiar elements, as players assist Indy in the quest for the staff of Moses. For those revisiting this classic on PS5 and PS4, enhancements such as up-rendering, rewind functionality, quick save features, and custom video filters have been integrated for a more modern gameplay experience.
