Another cancelled Indiana Jones game

[Threepwood4life]

Im not sure if this is been mentioned before, i was browsing Unseen64 website and noticed an article about a cancelled Indiana Jones game, i thought at first it was the ps3/360 version of Staff of Kings but apparently its not.

 

It looks like The Collective, who developed Emperors Tomb, were developing another game based mainly on the original trilogy and was scheduled to release in 2005 on PS2 and Xbox

 

Theres a proof of concept trailer too;

The project's been acknowledged, but only in the vaguest terms. That it was to be based on the trilogy is news to me.

 

Talk about a video game series that can't catch a break.

Was just browsing the website of Steven Chorney (an artist who has a lot of overlap with Drew Struzan and did some art for a The Dig advert) and noticed some concept art for an Indy game that "never came to fruition" (not the one mentioned in OP presumably, but I thought it'd be neater to post in an existing thread!). There's five of them at the top of the page, some generic stuff but also a fair few details of props, locations, characters etc:

For a franchise as seemingly video-game-friendly as Indiana Jones, it's wild that the game projects never seem to come together. You'd think they could simply throw it to Naughty Dog, since Uncharted is basically as Indiana Jones as it gets. Alas.

 

Neat concept art; Chorney's definitely got the Struzan vibe down. Fun to see those Agents of Shield posters in that style as well.

Naughty Dog probably has no interest when their own Indiana Jones is arguably more successful than Indy ever was 😅

I know this is only concept art, and the final piece would have looked a lot better, but all I can hear when I see this one is Joey from Friends saying: "How you doin'?"
