Tandem Events has announced that MachineGames’ design director Jens Andersson and audio director Pete Ward will be speaking at this year’s Develop:Brighton conference.

The talk, named ‘The Spirit of Adventure – Bringing Indiana Jones Back to Gaming’,  will explore both the successes and challenges involved in adapting the Indiana Jones film franchise into a modern video game.

MachineGames is the studio behind Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, which released on Xbox and PC back in back in December, and also came out on PlayStation 5 back in April. It has received rave reviews and high praise from just about everyone, so it’s safe to say that the team knows what it’s talking about.

“Pete and I are incredibly excited to share how we brought Indiana Jones and the Great Circle to life for
today’s gamers! It is truly an honour for us to have a keynote at Develop:Brighton this summer,” said Andersson.
