Usually, July is a slow month for gamers, as developers hoard their best games for the upcoming holiday season. Fortunately, in 2022, while there may not be too many AAA games gracing July, there are still several titles worth keeping an eye on. This includes Stray, an eccentric game that lets players live the life of a cat, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 where players will journey towards Sword March as two warring nations hunt them down, and the remake of the classic RPG Live A Live. Although it may fly under the radar due to it being an indie game, it is also worth paying attention to Escape Academy.

The game shows a lot of promise, as it will also feature co-op, allowing friends to put their brains together to solve puzzles. Xbox Game Pass subscribers will get to experience it when it launches in July, as it will be available on the service.

Escape Academy will feature over a dozen rooms featuring mind-bending puzzles to exercise gamers' brains, and co-op gameplay is
