What’s new in June 2024: 7 upcoming games to keep an eye on

digitaltrends.com:

Every June, video game announcements typically take precedence over new releases. That said, there’s still plenty to look forward to this month, especially when it comes to new releases that build upon already existing games. Both Elden Ring and Destiny 2 are getting expansions, while Shin Megami Tensei V, Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon, and Monster Hunter Stories are all getting a new leases on life.

While some surprise launches at this month’s showcases will surely beef up June’s game release calendar, I’ve highlighted some of the games that you should be keeping on your radar when you’re able to divert your attention away from all the new reveals. You can also check out Digital Trends’ lists of upcoming games for PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch.

Star Wars Hunters (June 4)

For fans of multiplayer games or Star Wars, the most compelling June game launch will be Star Wars Hunters. It’s a squad-based PvP hero shooter for iOS, Android, and Nintendo Switch that sees an eclectic cast of Star Wars characters face off in various competitions on an Arena planet called Vespaara. At release, it will support four different game modes: Squad Brawl, Dynamic Control, Power Control, and Trophy Chase. There aren’t that many hero shooters on Nintendo Switch, so if you can get over the game’s microtransactions and mobile roots, then you could have a good time.

Few games can give Pokémon a run for its money, but Monster Hunter Stories does. You might be more familiar with the sequel that launched on PC and Nintendo Switch in 2024, but the original Monster Hunter Stories, which came out for 3DS in the U.S. in 2017, is getting remastered. The monster-collecting RPG’s visuals have been spruced up for PC, Nintendo Switch, and PS4, and the whole game is now fully voice-acted.
