ABZÛ – August 2
When it was announced that Journey‘s Grammy Award nominated composer and art director would collaborate on a new game, it was safe to assume that we were in for a treat. The game, called ABZÛ, has players deep sea diving and exploring a world filled with wildlife. It’s one of the most visually stunning titles ever released, and it’s just as fun to play.

Batman: The Telltale Series – August 2
Telltale Games has a great track record as of late with Tales from the Borderlands and The Wolf Among Us both receiving high praise from critics and consumers. Now they’re tackling their biggest franchise yet—Batman. The studio’s signature brand of storytelling shines in the first episode of the Caped Crusader’s latest adventure, and it sets up what looks to be an entertaining season of games.

No Man’s Sky – August 9
Few video games, let alone indie games, get the amount of hype that No Man’s Sky has received, but that’s a testament to how appealing its premise is. Hello Games have generated a whole universe for players to explore, and they play to let each player feel like Christopher Columbus as they discover new worlds.
Personally, I can’t wait to see if the Joe Danger developer has been able to fulfill its promising sales pitch, and to name a planet of my own in just a few short days.
