Indiana Jones and the Great Circle: The Order of Giants is a fun little slice of Indy action. Set within the maze-like tunnels beneath the Vatican City, Indy, working with a priest and his pet parrot, is trying to uncover a millenia-spanning mystery regarding giant warriors.

The DLC, which runs for about three hours or so, isn’t anything vastly different from what we’ve seen in the brilliant main campaign. You’ll explore ancient caverns, engage in a bit of fisticuffs, and tackle a puzzle or two. Classic Indy stuff.

The setting itself primarily consists of claustrophobic tunnels, with one open river area. MachineGames has a penchant for capturing a setting, though; after exploring every nook and cranny of the Vatican City in the base game, it’s fun to explore a new area just around the corner. But don’t expect the density or scale of those settings, as it’s mainly setdressing here.

The puzzles are the biggest takeaway from the DLC. There are some genuine headscratchers in here, with the game’s high fidelity allowing you to examine the ancient markings on tomb walls. It’s great stuff.

Narratively, we weren’t all too fussed as the expansion made its start – it all feels quite casual as something that only tangentially links to the main campaign. However, come the end, The Order of Giants manages to weave that fine line between ancient mysteries and genuine mythical hijinks.

We played through this one on the PS5 Pro and it ran brilliantly for the most part. The ray-traced reflections are incredibly immersive alongside its solid 60 frames-per-second performance.

Interestingly, there were some slight visual hiccups, with the joins in walls sparkling white at times — and we experienced one cutscene with a flickering lighting glitch. It's a shame, because 95% of this DLC looks and runs just as well as the base game.

The Order of Giants isn’t going to change anyone’s opinion on the MachineGames Indy outing. If you didn’t like it before, you won’t like this. Similarly for returning players looking for something new, you won't find it here, and as expected, it lacks the scale that we loved so much in the main game.

However, if you're just looking for a few more hours with your favourite quipping archaeologist, then The Order of Giants offers up just that, with a fun storyline, great visuals, and some fantastic puzzles.
