While the Green Crusade community is questioning the veracity of the rumors about the Xbox showcase at the beginning of 2023 on the net, a job advertisement published by MachineGames captures the attention of fans with clues about the graphics engine adopted to shape the Bethesda video game dedicated to Indiana Jones .
Representatives of the Swedish subsidiary of Xbox Game Studios have indeed published a new job advertisement for industry talent eager to join the Indiana Jones game development team assuming the role of Lead Level Designer.
Among the qualifications required of candidates for this important position, MachineGames cites a “profound knowledge of level editors like those built into Unreal EngineSandbox, Hammer and the like”. Judging by what the European authors remarked, therefore, for the creation of the next Indie adventure signed by Bethesda it would have been decided to adopt the new Epic Games graphics engine.
The use of Unreal Engine 5, if confirmed, would represent a big change for the MachineGames team, due to the work done in recent years with ID Tech to realize the creative vision of the Wolfenstein reboot series. In recent weeks, Todd Howard has defined Indiana Jones as ‘a unique game’ and confirmed the attention placed by the MachineGames team in creating an adventure with a deep story and exciting gameplay.
