Go to under "File > New > Asset Studio", then look for Foreground, Background, Legacy. Click on Legacy and choose "circle" from the drop-down menu under "shape".

After clicking Next you should get circular launcher icon.

Previews might be misleading as they have background as the icon.

After all, if you won't get what you expect, try: https://romannurik.github.io/AndroidAssetStudio/

Hope it will help
