Summer is just starting off, it’s hot outside and you just don’t want to be subjected to that heat. So what can a person do? Well, it is July and there’s a whole mess of games that are being released this month. You name it, it’s being released. Action games, RPGs, Platformers and more. This month has something for just about everybody.
But not sure what titles you should be checking out? Not to worry, we got a few suggestions for you. Now sit back and feast your eyes on this month’s gems.
Octopath Traveler
A Nintendo Switch exclusive RPG, from the minds of Square Enix. When this was first announced, it had vibes of Final Fantasy. The look of a 16-bit title, with gameplay that rivals many modern day RPGs. You play as eight different characters, at any given time. However, the beauty is that through the use of narrative, everyone's story will connect in one way or another.
I've been excited about getting my hands on Octopath Traveler ever since it was announced and the demo was released. I haven't even touched the second demo as I just didn't want to spoil myself. This is an RPG that I simply must play and it releases fairly soon. Get ready.
Platforms: Nintendo Switch
Release Date: July 18, 2018
Price: $59.99, $99.99 for the Wayfarer's Edition. Available on Amazon.
