Todd Howard may have triggered Bethesda’s Indiana Jones game months ago

Todd Howard may have triggered Bethesda’s recently announced Indiana Jones game two months ago. Speaking to Geoff Keighley last November, Todd Howard appeared to have the Ark and Idol of Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark propped on his bookshelf behind him (as you can see in the tweet below).

It’s reminiscent of how Phil Spencer recently appeared in interviews with the then-unannounced Xbox Series S sitting behind him. There is little chance that anyone has connected these points, but it still looks like you missed a bright clue all this time.

Then again, it could be a coincidence – on a Bethesda blog, Pete Hines, senior vice president of global marketing, said: “Todd is a lifelong fan of Indy and has been trying to make this game for over a decade . “He is very excited to be working with the award winning MachineGames team, a perfect match for Indy.” So, maybe he just likes his Indiana Jones merchandise?

The game Indiana Jones will be a standalone adventure set at the height of the character’s career and is being developed by MachineGames (Wolfenstein: The New Order).

It is the first game announced as part of the revived brand Lucasfilm Games, which will bring together games from multiple developers under one banner, covering games from the Star Wars galaxy and beyond.
