Path Tracing Frustrates Indy’s High-End Potential

Indiana Jones and The Great Circle looks stunning with path tracing, but even top-of-the-line GPUs struggle to run the game at 4K resolution and max settings above 30 FPS. To achieve a smoother experience, players must make compromises on settings and resolution. The game’s reliance on path tracing makes it stand out, as seen in a comparison video shared by Tyrian on YouTube. However, even powerful GPUs like the RTX 4090 are limited to 30 FPS at native 4K resolution.

Other games that support path tracing, such as Cyberpunk 2077 and Alan Wake 2, also demonstrate the challenges of running these features at high resolutions. The test results shared by Mostly Positive Reviews show that even the most powerful GPU on the market struggles at 1440p resolution, barely reaching 50 FPS in demanding scenarios.

Despite performance issues, Indiana Jones and The Great Circle is a great game to play, offering an enjoyable experience for players. For more information on the latest MachineGames title now available on PC and Xbox consoles, check out Alessio’s review.
