343iBot Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 August is almost here, and if you're looking for some new games to play on Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and PC, there are some exciting titles on the horizon. Easily the biggest title out in a few weeks is Saints Row, a reimagining of the popular open-world franchise that takes the gangland sandbox back to its roots after the last number of games turned up the absurdity factor to 11.On top of that, there's the delightfully charming and slightly disturbing Cult of the Lamb to look forward to, web-slinging on PC when Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered arrives, a roguelike golf game (yes), and a retro compilation of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' greatest hits that's totally bodacious, dude. We've rounded up the full list below, and highlighted a few other games that will be headlining August, ranging from alien invasion remakes to a pesky cat that wants to terrorize your neat arrangement of stuff.Two Point Campus (August 9)Two Point CampusWelcome to academia!

Wholesome fun, that'll be coming to PC and consoles this month.See on SteamMarvel’s Spider-Man Remastered (August 12)Marvel's Spider-Man RemasteredSony has slowly been rolling out its console-exclusive games to PC, and for its next port, it's bringing Insomniac's excellent Marvel's Spider-Man out to play.
