Mario Kart World burst onto the scene as a launch title for Nintendo Switch 2 on June 5, 2025. It revolutionizes the Kart franchise with a shared open world, up to 24-player races, off‑road elements, elimination modes, and customizable outfits—earning acclaim for refining and evolving the series formula.
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, the highly anticipated sequel from Hideo Kojima, landed exclusively on PS5 on June 26, 2025. The title continues to explore themes of isolation, connection, and surreal post-apocalyptic landscapes, expanding traversal tools and world-building from the original.
System Shock 2: 25th Anniversary Remaster, dropped on June 26 across PC and consoles. This revitalized version introduces 4K visuals, 120–144 FPS, widescreen UI, revamped controller support, and co-op plus mod features—breathing fresh life into the genre-defining sci‑fi horror classic.
Dune: Awakening, released June 10 on PC (with console versions due in 2026), delivers a survival‑MMO take on the Dune universe. Set in an alternate timeline, players navigate Arrakis’ harsh environment while uncovering Bene Gesserit conspiracies—bringing narrative ambition to survival gameplay.
Date Everything!, launched June 17 across platforms, is a hilariously offbeat dating‑sim where you romance anthropomorphized household objects. With voice talents like Troy Baker and Matthew Mercer, its inventive premise and charming dialogue earned generally favorable reviews.
