Steam's Next Fest Starts June 19th - Here's 10 Games You Should Try

mmorpg.com:

It felt like almost yesterday we were chain-gaming demos from Steam’s Next Fest. Now that the dust has settled on the Summer Game Fest and the rest of the exciting game shows, it’s time to prepare for the Steam’s Summer Next Fest, and we’ve created a short list of games you definitely should try from June 19th through the 26th.

If you’re a PvP fan, you probably won’t find too many games as frantic and impactful as the 16 vs 16 battles in Nexon’s Warhaven. The game will release as Free to Play and have six different classes to choose from. You’ll need to work together with your teammates to defeat your opponents through strategic and complementary tactics.

The trailer obviously makes the game look amazing, and the skills and combat seem to have a weighty feel to them, which will certainly add to the hardcore nature of this PvP-centered action MOG. If you’re interested in learning more before jumping into the game, check out last year’s interview with Game Director Eunseok Yi.

Roguelike games are making some great strides with new game types. In Voidborn, you’ll take on the role of – your guessed it – a Voidborn, in a visceral FPS roguelike game. While the game is strictly single player, this makes the list because the game has been described as the “gameplay from Doom and  Ultrakill with roguelike elements inspired by Hades and Risk of Rain 2, set in a world inspired by Dark Souls and Elden Ring.”

That’s a lot of amazing games to take inspiration from, and even if developer Xekvera manages to fulfill half of that inspiration, it’s going to be a ton of fun. Luckily the trailer depicts some rough and tumble combat, so definitely check it out if fast-paces combat and roguelike progression is your thing.
