'Indiana Jones: The Pinball Adventure' Table Gets Remastered For Pinball FX, Pinball FX3 And Williams Pinball In 2022 - Screens & Trailer

Designed to bring the community together like never before, Pinball FX3 is built around multiplayer match-ups and competitive tournament play.

Zen Studios also placed a strong focus on helping players become more competitive, and have designed new single-player modes featuring special challenges that will help players develop their skills as they connect with the Pinball FX3 community.

Since 2007, Zen Studios has set the standard for video game pinball. The Pinball FX series balances authentic physics and gameplay mechanics with features that fully embrace the unlimited potential of video games, such as spectacular visual sequences and unparalleled competitive features. Just like traditional pinball, table subject matter includes everything from original takes on themes like sci-fi and fantasy to some of pop culture’s most iconic brands, such as Back to the Future, E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial, Aliens, The Walking Dead and more.


Zen Studios, in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games, revealed a new remastered edition of the classic Indiana Jones: The Pinball Adventure pinball table. This first-ever digital release of the 1993 Williams™ “SuperPin” legend captures the authentic look, design and feel of the original machine with additional features and enhancements.

Made for Indiana Jones and pinball fans worldwide, Zen’s digital release of Indiana Jones: The Pinball Adventure faithfully recreates one of the best Williams machines for the modern age in precise detail.

Features:

  • Indiana Jones: The Pinball Adventure combines a fan-favorite Williams machine with everyone’s favorite adventurer – enjoy the original music, sounds, rules and look of the machine brought to the digital space for the first time.
  • Experience the table just as you remember it, with true-to-life Pro Physics simulation, carefully developed by the pinball experts at Zen, using super slow-motion footage to capture flipper, rubber and ball movements to better understand and recreate pinball mechanics.
  • Discover the table in a new way with 3D effects in the ‘Enhanced’ version, including side wall art, ball trailer effects, particle effects and a whip-wielding Indiana Jones.
  • Play at home, with friends, or compete online with single-player, local multiplayer, challenge, and tournament modes.

Indiana Jones: The Pinball Adventure is coming to Pinball FX3 on PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and PS4, as well as Williams Pinball on iOS and Google Play in March 2022.

It will also be available alongside the early access launch of Pinball FX on PC via the Epic Games Store in March 2022, and later alongside the official launch of Pinball FX on PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X|S, PS5, Xbox One and PS4 in summer 2022.

Key Features:

  • Now every table is an RPG. Simply playing a table yields experience points and level advancements that continually unlock the potential for bigger points…and bigger blowouts of your friends’ scores on the leaderboards. Strategic thinking comes into play when determining which power-ups to equip—one table might be best suited for a Skillshot Score Increase and Multiball Score Bonus, while another might better benefit from Combo Time Bonus and Distance Bonus team-up.   
  • Players level up. The more you play, the higher your own personal experience level increases.
  • Anyone can start their own tournament. In addition to tournaments run by Zen (often involving fantastic prizes), Pinball FX3 allows players to create and customize their own tournaments, including access to several modes of play.  
  • Advanced multiplayer features allow for intelligent matching against others based on skill level. This applies to everything from immediate friendly matches to ultracompetitive League Play.
  • Cross-play enables Nintendo Switch players to take on opponents competing on most other platforms where Pinball FX3 is available.
  • New game modes will change the way you play even tables you feel you’ve already mastered. Playing a 1-Ball Challenge, a 5-Minute Challenge or Survival Mode will cause you to completely rethink your approach in order to top the leaderboards.

Pinball FX3 is currently available for Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
