Bethesda has rolled out Update 2 for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, bringing much-needed fixes to several key issues. Players had been reporting problems like damaged or missing save slots, game stuttering, and visual glitches. This patch addresses those concerns and includes specific improvements for PC and Xbox users.
What’s fixed in update 2?
This Indiana Jones patch focuses on fixing bugs that affected both gameplay and graphics. One of the major fixes resolves the issue where game slots appeared damaged or disappeared entirely, even when no real issue existed.
In gameplay, players can expect smoother experiences with fixes like:
- Indy’s whip now works correctly when equipped.
- The camera won’t stay permanently stuck or get lost during quick-equip actions.
- Problems with the “double vision” effect after Indy almost drowns have been fixed.
Graphics issues have also been tackled. Stuttering during cutscenes has been reduced, and PC players with NVIDIA graphics cards will see improvements to features like Frame Generation, DLSS, and global illumination.
PC-specific fixes
PC players had been vocal about NVIDIA-related problems. Update 2 brings:
- Fixes for Frame Generation when using HDR.
- Better performance when NVIDIA DLSS is enabled.
- Lighting improvements when using Path Tracing at medium or high quality.
- A workaround for HDR-related Frame Generation issues—players can disable and re-enable DLSS to fix the problem.
Xbox-specific fixes
Xbox players haven’t been left out. The update improves global illumination, fixing brightness issues in shadowed areas. This should make indoor scenes look more realistic.
Other notes
Content creators who use OBS Studio to record Indiana Jones gameplay have also received good news. Update 2 stops the game from crashing when using OBS. Bethesda recommends updating to OBS Studio version 31.0.0 for the best results.
This update is a step in the right direction for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, ensuring a smoother and more enjoyable experience for players. For the full list of changes, visit Bethesda’s official site or community forums.
