Release dates have felt more like guesses in the delay-filled year of 2021, but things seem to be solidifying this June with a heap of anticipated games finally seeing the light of day.

Bethesda

Here are 7 hype-worthy games being released in June 2021

7. The Elder Scrolls Online: Blackwood

The next chapter of Elder Scrolls Online’s Gates of Oblivion story adds NPC companions, Oblivion portals, and more on June 1 (June 8 on consoles).

(PS4/PS5, Xbox One/X, PC)

6. Legend of Mana

Legend of Mana didn’t make it into the recent Collection of Mana re-releases with its predecessors, but it may be worth the wait. Instead of a port, the RPG classic gets a full-on remaster on June 24.

(Switch)

Nintendo
5. Mario Golf: Super Rush

One of the best Mario games that doesn’t involve violence against turtles returns on June 25 with multiplayer, motion controls, and mini-games.

(Switch)

4. Scarlet Nexus

If sci-fi nonsense phrases like “brainlink,” “psionic hormones,” and “Other Suppression Force” get you excited, you’ll want to check out this stylish anime action game when it’s released on June 25.

(PS4/PS5, Xbox One/X, PC)

3. Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance

After the surprise re-release of Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance in May, this updated D&D hack-and-slash adventure has players hoping for a Nat 20 on June 22. (And on Xbox Game Pass, no less.)

(PS4/PS5, Xbox One/X, PC)

2. Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is both a revival of a fan-favorite series and a technical showcase for the PS5, making its June 11 release date one of the most important days yet for Sony’s console.

(PS5)

1. Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade

Everyone’s favorite materia thief makes her way to Midgar on June 10, alongside a PS5 upgrade for Final Fantasy VII Remake that’s free for anyone who bought it on PS4.

(PS4/PS5)
