Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Gets Temple of Doom Pankot Palace Outfit in New Update

MachineGames just dropped a fresh update for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, and it’s bringing some serious Temple of Doom nostalgia. The star of this patch? The Pankot Palace outfit—yes, the fancy dinner suit Indy wore right before that infamous chilled monkey brains scene.

If you’ve been waiting to dress up Dr. Jones in his bowtie and round spectacles, your time has come.

What’s New: The Pankot Palace Outfit

The latest Indiana Jones and the Great Circle update adds the Pankot Palace outfit for all players. This is the formal suit Indiana Jones wore during the dinner scene at Pankot Palace in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom—a moment forever burned into fans’ memories thanks to that… creative menu.

How the Pankot Palace Outfit Looks

The outfit features:

• Round spectacles (Indy’s scholarly look)
• Black bowtie and formal dinner jacket
• The refined, “I’m totally not about to uncover an evil cult” vibe

It’s a sharp departure from Indy’s rugged explorer gear, perfect for players who want to mix things up during their adventure.

How to Equip the Pankot Palace Outfit

Switching to the new outfit is simple:

1. Open the Options menu
2. Navigate to the Outfit tab
3. Select Pankot Palace from the list

Important notes:

• Indy will wear this outfit whenever he’s not in a disguise
• Some levels require specific outfits (like Marshall College or Nepal), so you can’t use it everywhere
• Any custom outfits from Pre-Order or Premium upgrades are also accessible in this menu

Another Outfit Coming Soon

MachineGames teased that another new outfit is on the way in a future update. No hints yet on which iconic Indy look they’ll add next, but fans are already speculating:

• The Last Crusade suit (another formal option)
• Raiders desert gear (classic adventure attire)
• Young Indy outfit from flashback scenes

Whatever it is, MachineGames seems committed to giving players more customization options.

Bug Fixes and Quality-of-Life Improvements

Beyond the outfit, this Indiana Jones and the Great Circle patch includes several fixes to improve gameplay:

Main Game Fixes

• VO balance adjusted on some scenes to make dialogue more audible (no more straining to hear Indy’s quips)
• Manual entries corrected regarding alternative outfits and whips
• Xbox Series X/S power-saving mode issue fixed—it won’t randomly activate during cutscenes anymore

The Order of Giants DLC Fix

• Fieldwork name bug resolved: The “A Mystery Begins” Fieldwork now displays correctly in your Journal, even if you purchased the DLC after progressing past the Vatican

These are relatively minor fixes, but they smooth out rough edges that were bugging players.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle: What Else Has Been Added?

This isn’t the first major update MachineGames has rolled out for The Great Circle.

New Game+ Mode

Earlier this year, MachineGames added New Game+ mode, which lets players:

• Carry over Adventure Books and unspent Adventure Points
• Keep currency and Medicine Bottles from previous playthroughs
• Replay the story with all your unlocks intact

If you’ve already beaten the game once, New Game+ is perfect for experiencing the story again with all your hard-earned gear.

The Order of Giants DLC

The Order of Giants DLC expanded the game with additional missions and secrets. If you grabbed it after starting your playthrough, the latest patch ensures everything displays correctly in your Journal.

Why the Pankot Palace Outfit Matters

For hardcore Indiana Jones fans, outfits aren’t just cosmetic—they’re nostalgic throwbacks to iconic moments from the films.

The Temple of Doom Connection

The Pankot Palace dinner scene is one of the most memorable (and stomach-turning) moments in Temple of Doom. Between the monkey brains, eyeball soup, and live snakes, that meal was… unforgettable.

Seeing Indy in his formal dinner attire before all hell breaks loose is a core part of the film’s charm. Now, you can recreate that vibe in-game—minus the questionable cuisine.

Customization Adds Replay Value

While The Great Circle is a linear adventure, outfit options give players a reason to revisit sections of the game or experiment with different looks during New Game+ runs. It’s a small touch, but it enhances immersion for fans who want to role-play specific Indy moments.

What Fans Are Saying

The community response to the Pankot Palace outfit has been overwhelmingly positive. Fans appreciate MachineGames’ attention to detail and commitment to celebrating the Indiana Jones franchise.

Some players are already speculating about future outfits:

• “Give us the tuxedo from Last Crusade next!”
• “I need the desert scarf and leather jacket combo from Raiders.”
• “What about a classic fedora-and-whip-only ‘iconic Indy’ skin?”

Whatever MachineGames has planned, fans are eager to see more.

Should You Replay Indiana Jones and the Great Circle?

If you’ve already beaten The Great Circle, this update might not be enough on its own to justify a full replay—unless you’re a completionist or diehard costume fan.

However, here’s when you should consider jumping back in:

• You haven’t tried New Game+ yet: Carry over your progress and experience the story again with all your upgrades
• You own The Order of Giants DLC: The bug fix ensures your Journal displays correctly
• You love Indiana Jones cosmetics: The Pankot Palace outfit is a fun nostalgia trip
• You’re waiting for the next outfit drop: Start a new playthrough now and be ready when the next costume arrives

A Solid Update for Indy Fans

The Pankot Palace outfit is a welcome addition to Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, even if it’s purely cosmetic. MachineGames continues to show they care about the franchise’s legacy by pulling from iconic movie moments and giving players ways to celebrate them in-game.

Combined with bug fixes and the promise of more outfits on the horizon, this update keeps The Great Circle fresh for both new players and returning adventurers.
