Indiana Jones and the Great Circle from MachineGames / Bethesda Softworks has a fresh update out, and with it Valve have now rated it Steam Deck Verified. Nice to see more developers ensure their games work better.

Going by their Steam announcement, they've implemented a dedicated Steam Deck setting for the "Texture Pool Size", which will stop it overloading and causing the game to crash. Other settings have been left as they are. So this likely doesn't improve performance, and according to our pals at SteamDeckHQ there's still some loading time issues too. But at least it will now run properly.

From the Steam announcement:

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is now Verified for Steam Deck! Fresh game profiles will now default to optimized settings for running the game on Steam Deck.

  • Note: When running the game on Steam Deck, the “Texture Pool Size” is now set to a value called “Steam Deck” to avoid exceeding RAM limits that will crash the game. Other graphics options can still be adjusted to preference.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed issue where extremely rapid switching of your equipped items with the d-pad at the same time as picking other objects up could result in you permanently dropping important progression items such as your camera, lighter or whip. Players who have experienced this should find those items restored when launching the game with this hotfix installed
  • Fixed an issue where the Iraq cave door was closed when revisiting that level, preventing you from revisiting the main chamber
  • Improvements to DualSense wireless controller Adaptive Triggers to prevent them from quietly “clicking” when looking at friendly NPCs
  • Menu option added to allow modification of DualSense wireless controller Adaptive Trigger strength, including an “Off” option.
    • Note: For Steam players, the game now has Steam Input defaulted to Off for PlayStation controllers, so that more players can discover the DualSense features on PC. If you wish to reenable Steam Input, you can do that from the Controller section of the game Properties in the Steam launcher
  • Fixed an issue where the “Forgotten Page” activity note might fail to appear in Sunan’s hut in Sukhothai if you did not pick it up in the Hotel when first arriving in Sukhothai
  • Fixed one known cause of an issue preventing players from being given the “Archivist” achievement. Players should find that the achievement will pop as soon as gameplay is started after installing the hotfix. Other causes of this bug may exist; please contact Bethesda Support to share details if you continue to experience this issue
