How to preload
While the preload option for Indiana Jones is live on Xbox and PC through the Xbox app, it’s not the full preload yet. The button is there, but pressing it only downloads a couple hundred MB so we’ll need to wait for an update before we can know the full file size.
How to play Indiana Jones early

The Premium Edition costs $99.99/£99.99 but if you own Xbox Game Pass, you can upgrade your edition for $34.99/£34.99 – not only giving you early access, but also the Temple of Doom outfit, digital artbook, and the Order of the Giants story DLC that arrives at a later date.
