He Indiana Jones and the big circle The developers have discussed the next downloadable content (DLC) of the game in a new interview.
In a conversation with IGN, the creative director Axel Torvenius and the main designer of Zeke Virant Games revealed that the The order of the giants DLC will adapt its level of difficulty depending on its progress in the main game.
Established in the location of the Vatican, it will be integrated intelligently into the existing content of the game.
“The conventional way to do DLC is to add something that is maintained later, or a miniature game aside, but we really don’t feel that was the best,” Torvenius said.
According to developers, implementing the expansion in this way was a challenge, but it should be a softer experience for all players, no matter where they are in the game.
“The players who are at the end of the game do not need to worry about the difficulty, since we really have a new system in which players are dynamically climb depending on how far they advanced,” Virant said.
“We know that many players return from the end of the game and we would like to have a continuation of that difficulty, especially if they have health improvements and many skills.
“If you have progressed to the Vatican but you have not yet arrived in Giza, we keep it in a first level of difficulty,” he added. “If you have arrived in Giza, we adjust it to a second level. And then, once you have reached Sukhothai, we adjust to a third level.”
This will affect things like the amount of health that each enemy has, in addition to how many will attack at the same time.
As someone who first played the game at the release, I have been anxious for an excuse for a new game and The order of the giants It sounds perfect. Now that I know I will not experience the DLC at a disadvantage in a new salvation, there is no reason not to tighten the trigger.
Indiana Jones and the big circle It is now available on PC, Xbox Series X and Series S, and PlayStation 5. A Nintendo Switch 2 port is also on its way.
