What’s the plot?

Hopefully this means we’ll get to do some vicarious Nazi, or possibly Italian Fascist, punching through Indy as we take him on his adventure.

As GamesRadar’s Alyssa Mercante pointed out, 1937 both marked Fascist dictator Benito Mussolini’s return to Rome after formalizing Italy’s 1936 alliance with Nazi Germany in Berlin, and saw Mussolini presented with an artifact known as the Sword of Islam—both key events that Indy would likely be very interested in, and have some very strong negative opinions about.

1936/37 is when Mussolini got pretty close to Hitler, giving us a Nazi connection. 1937 is also when Mussolini was presented with the Sword of Islam, the most Goddamn Indiana Jones sword I've ever seen. And a Top Secret binder suggests Indy's doing US government work again. pic.twitter.com/PESN1HhbXK

There are Cyclopean ruins near Rome, usually defined by being constructed by massive blocks, like that photo, and believed to built by a lost race of... giant cyclopes - giving us a nice mythical twist to explore, and access/link to other Cyclopean ruins all over the world. pic.twitter.com/JoDgHUHanr

Been any gameplay shown yet? Or at least where they're leaning to glean most of the gameplay from?

With a few tweaks Indy could be substituted for B.J. Blazkowicz.

an indiana jones RPG would be amazing...a man can dream

Eh, unless it’s on par or better than Uncharted, I’m not interested

Just take Uncharted gameplay and overlap Indy characters on it. That what they did with Jedi Fallen Order and Survivor with Soulsborne gameplay and they're both great games.

I'm not even a huge Indy fan and I thought it looked awesome...

So glad it's first person, did not want an Uncharted clone.

They've really nailed the tone and overall theme IMO..

the gameplay looks solid but the cinematic sequences look and sound stupid AF. Why did the baddie get down on all fours? was he trying to kiss Indy? if you're buried up to your neck, how do you even get leverage to headbutt someone hovering over you? those voiceovers sound phoned in, Harrison must be working part time
