With rising temps and school out for summer, what better way to beat the heat than with some nice, cool video games? See what games we’re excited for in June 2024 that will keep your consoles and PC happily humming. 

Oh, and we won’t make you click through five pages to look at the entire list.

Top 5 Games We’re Excited for in June 2024

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

After winning the title of Game of the Year from The Game Awards, the world of FromSoftware and Bandai Namco’s Elden Ring is back with an all-new story in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree.

Not only are we excited to play around with this standalone expansion’s new weapons, equipment, weapon skills and magic, we’re also all too eager to explore the new story set in the Land of Shadow.

Described as FromSoftware’s “largest expansion to date,” we’re once again looking forward to getting lost in its interconnected world.

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree will come out for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on June 20.

NeoSprint

After growing up with top-down racers like Sprint, R.C. Pro-Am, and Super Off Road, we’re all too eager to hit the track with the release of Headless Chicken Games and Atari’s NeoSprint.

Not only are we eager to bring our friends along with its eight-player action, there’s also a Campaign mode, Grand Prix, Obstacle Courses, and Time Trials that are just dying to keep us busy.

However, we’ve really got our sights set on NeoSprint’s track building and sharing functionality. With different biomes, multiple customization options, and the chance to share and rank tracks, we like how there will be an emphasis on user-generated content.

NeoSprint will come out for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC on June 27.

Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble

There’s no monkeying around with the release of Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio and SEGA’s Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble this month!

We grew up with the series on the Nintendo GameCube, and we’re especially looking forward to competing with others online and diving into co-op. There’s even a single-player Adventure Mode experience!

Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble will come out for the Nintendo Switch on June 25.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game

As fans of the original horror classic, we are absolutely “dying” to experience Teravision Games and IllFonic’s asymmetrical Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game. Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game.

Staying true to the movie, this title pits the titular Killer Klowns and the citizens of Crescent Cove in a battle of survival across different tactical zones.

The end result? A unique approach to hide-and-seek gameplay that blends together customization, PvPvE, and dynamic objectives – the perfect tribute to the cult classic.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game will come out for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on June 4.

Still Wakes the Deep

Players will be transported back to 1975 with The Chinese Room and Secret Mode new horror title Still Wakes the Deep.

As the offshore oil rig worker Caz McLeary, players will have to contend with a vicious storm, severed communication lines, and no exits. To make matters worse – there’s also some unknowable horros that lie in wait.

We are fans of The Chinese Room’s previous works like Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, and this one has been described as “a symphony of action, trepidation, tender emotions, and awe.” Sounds good to us!

Still Wakes the Deep will come out for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on June 18.
