3 Big Xbox One, Wii U and PS4 Games for June 2015

Published

on

We all knew that as the summer months approached there’d be a little less to be excited about. New titles from independent developers for the Xbox One, PS4 and PC are still arriving at a fast pace, but games from large developers with names most gamers can recognize are down to a trickle. Those in search of Xbox One and PS4 games have a chance, there are three major releases coming to those platforms over the next weeks. The same can’t be said for Nintendo’s Wii U console, which is still reeling from a lack of third-party developers willing to make games for it.

Here are 3 exciting Xbox One, Wii U and PS4 games slated to arrive in June and save you from the annual start of the summer boredom that usually hits the industry after the E3 trade show.

Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited – June 9th

GTA Online Ill-Gotten Gains Update – June 10th

Announced last week, the Ill-Gotten Gains Update for GTA Online isn’t a game in its own right. That is to say, you can’t purchase it in a store. Even if you could you wouldn’t be able to do anything with it if you didn’t own GTA 5. On Wednesday, June 10th Rockstar has a ton of new weapons, vehicles and extras for users to purchase as part of the Ill-Gotten Gains Update.

Purchasing all of those new hot cars and vehicles using in-game cash won’t be cheap though. Ill-Gotten Gains is coming to the Xbox One, PS3, Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. Again, this isn’t a new release, but for anyone who isn’t excited about the PS4 games and Xbox One games arriving over the next few weeks.

The Lego series of games has always managed to not fall into the same trap that licensed games fall into over and over again. Too often licensed games don’t add much to the story and pay too much fan service to those who already liked the franchise to begin with.

Lego Jurassic World is meant to capture a new generation of imaginations, little of which were exposed to the original series of movies. Lego Jurassic World will act as interactive companion to the movie so that players relive their favorite moments from the movie. Many of the movie’s dinosaurs are planned for the game and players can populate their own islands with raptors, a tyrannosaurus rex and more. Players will even get to create custom dinosaur breeds.

Lego Jurassic World is the only high-profile Xbox One and PS4 games also coming to the Wii U this year. In fact it’s the only game arriving on all three platforms this month. It’ll cost $60 like every other full-size title.

Batman Arkham Knight – June 23rd

Finally, finishing out this month and arriving just after the conclusion of the Electronic Entertainment Expo at the end of this month is Batman Arkham Knight.

Publisher Warner Brothers and Rocksteady Studios have teased this game for months. Batman is back and he’s joined by the legendary Batmobile in a bigger section of Gotham City, which is again under siege by the Arkham Knight.
