'''''Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis''''' is the name of two games based off of the [[wikipedia:Indiana Jones|Indiana Jones]] franchise, both released in 1992. The first was a graphic adventure game published and developed by [[LucasArts]] for DOS-based PCs, and was an original story. The second, released around the same time, was an isometric action-adventure adaptation for various home computers, developed by [[Attention To Detail]] and published by [[US Gold]], under the subtitle ''The Action Game'' (similarly to what happened with US Gold's ''[[Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade|Last Crusade]]'' adaptation)
 
  
A Sega Master System version, presumably based off of ''The Action Game'', was announced sometime in 1991 and was planned to be released in 1992 alongside the Game Gear version of ''Last Crusade'', but this was quietly cancelled.

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis is a graphic adventure game published and developed by LucasArts for DOS-based PCs in 1992, based off of the Indiana Jones franchise.

A Sega Mega-CD port was announced, to be published by JVC Musical Industries and developed by LucasArts themselves, and was featured at the Summer CES 1993[6]. Despite receiving various amounts of media coverage, including a review on an issue of Sega Visions magazine,[7] which also featured various screenshots as well as a VRC rating, suggesting that development on the port was quite far, it ended up being cancelled. It is presumed that the reason to cancel its release was due to poor sales of the earlier Mega-CD port of The Secret of Monkey Island.

Fate of Atlantis would ultimately hit consoles in 2009 as an unlockable bonus on LucasArts' Wii game Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings, albeit as an emulation rather than an actual port.
