Microsoft's upcoming major release is Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, set to launch on December 8. For PC gamers who are interested but hesitant about purchasing the game outright, there's an option to get it for just $1, though several factors might make this less appealing.
The $1 trial for PC Game Pass has made a comeback after being temporarily removed in October coinciding with the launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. New subscribers can enjoy 14 days of PC Game Pass for only $1, after which the standard $12/month fee will apply. Given that The Great Circle releases on December 8, signing up today means you can play the game until December 16.
It's uncertain if Microsoft will remove this $1 offer before The Great Circle's launch, so if you're curious, acting fast might be wise. If the offer remains, signing up closer to the launch date could maximize your 14-day window to play the game.
It's worth noting that The Great Circle is a single-player, story-driven game without multiplayer features. Thus, it's feasible to complete the game within the two-week PC Game Pass trial period. However, those eager to play The Order of Giants story DLC will need to resubscribe or buy the game to access this content, which will be available post-launch.
For those considering a longer commitment to PC Game Pass or Game Pass Ultimate for console (which includes PC access), the links below offer the best subscription deals. Note that the $1 trial for Game Pass Ultimate on console has not returned. Alternatively, you can purchase The Great Circle outright on PC via GameSpot's sister site Fanatical for $59.
