I’m trying to remember all the big things coming out this month.
So far all I can remember is:
- Two Point Campus
- Warhammer 3 Immortal Empires beta
Not big, per se, but:
Star Valor (out of EA)
Tyrant’s Blessing
Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered on the 12th.
This.
I’m all about Two Point Campus.
Yea me too. Looks like so much fun.
I think the new Saints Row is still getting released this month, hoping that’ll be fun!
F1 Manager 2022 and Spiderman on PC

I guess the big ones for me are Tinykin (I Loved the demo at Not-E3), Two Point Campus, and Saints Row.
On the bigger picture, the lack of triple-A titles right now, I agree with this article that it’s just fine with me:
Heck, it gives me time to actually finish Elden Ring this year, perhaps. And Stray. And maybe Dad of War. And Tinykin and Saints Row, of course.
Thank you!
RPG Time got me intrigued, if only because I’ve got no idea what it is like.
Dusk Diver 2 looks pretty sweet, but it’s an oldie for the weebs amongst us.
By the way, I’m not done with Elden Ring yet, but for those looking for their next Souls-like fix, this one is a Soulslike. And it could be pretty cool.
This is what’s on my radar, excluding TWW3 & Thymesia.
August 11 action-roguelike Cult of the Lamb.
August 16 Wargame-engine cold war RTS Regiments (not from Eugene).
August 19 Path of Exile: Lake of Kalandra league launch, news on Aug 11.
August 24 Gamescom trade fair.
August 30 Destroy All Humans! 2 - Reprobed.
August 30 Orx (has a demo).

Sept 27 Grounded on Steam
Oct 14 Timemelters on Steam
Nov 17 Pre-purchase Company of Heroes 3 on Steam
Nov 30 Pre-purchase Warhammer 40,000: Darktide on Steam

Farthest Frontier is the only release on my radar for August!
I’ll probably get Farthest Frontier once it leaves Early Access. Which might be many months.
I was originally dead set on purchasing Farthest Frontier when it came into EA on August 9. But that’s the same day as Two Point Campus, which I can play thru Game Pass. So I will probably old off on FF for a bit and see how it changes whilst in EA. I’m not completely sold on the humor and/or graphical style of Two Point Campus (I do NOT find it visually stunning!) so if the bloom wears off the rose quickly, I’ll swap over to FF.
Ahhh yes! That’s one of the other big one I was trying to remember. Thanks!
Didn’t realize that’s an August release. I really liked my free play time with it.
Farthest Frontier Is just releasing to EA? Boooo. Thought it was a real release.
Farthest Frontier for me. :)
Eurogamer gave it an “Essential” rating. They find it really groovy.
It might need its own thread at some point if Qt3 picks it up. It does sound cool.
This one seems to be getting reviews all over the map. Some people really dig it. Others really don’t.
