For gamers, it doesn’t get much better than June. The month of E3, where publishers and developers try and one up each other in terms of spectacle and reveals. For us gamers, it’s basically Christmas.
On the other side of the coin, June also marks the start of the summer drought, where not much releases until the start of the fall/holiday rush. Still, this month has plenty of decent options, so the pool hasn’t dried up yet!
In terms of big names this month, well, it has to be Mario, right? That’s a big name. If you enjoy Mario and his sports style of games, then Mario Tennis Aces is a game that’s ready, willing, and able.
The Crew 2, an ambitious arcade racer from Ubisoft, also arrives later this month, taking the cars and bikes from the first game and adding racing planes and boats to the mix as well.
Outside of that, LEGO is a pretty solid bet for a June release and 2018 doesn’t disappoint. The Incredibles are back both on the big screen and on little screens, now in LEGO form. Crash Bandicoot is also jumping from the PlayStation over to the remaining platforms, bringing his N. Sane Trilogy with him.
Enjoy the spectacle that is E3 this month everyone! Also, you may want to enjoy the releases this month because July is likely going to disappoint. But, I don’t want to get ahead of myself, so we’ll leave it there until next time!

Good post! Finally getting some concrete answers of what will be featured at E3. Check out my blog https://trailergamereviews.wordpress.com/
Thinking of picking up Vampyr and ONRUSH, been hearing good things!
I’m super tempted to grab OnRush. I need my Motorstorm fix
While some form of local multiplayer would have been great, ONRUSH is pretty fun as is. The modes are fun, and being part of a car stampede is pretty thrilling. That said, I would have been happier if I’d spent $40 on it instead of $60, but a good game overall.
Good to know! Thanks for the update!
