The Last of Us Part 2 Ellie

Things have slowed down quite a bit in the gaming space, with new developments being put on the back seat due to the coronavirus. While this has also caused the release schedule to dry up a little bit, there are a few big games coming next month that should be worth your while. One is a game that fans have been waiting years for, and another sees a beloved Nickelodeon character return with a remastered game. Without further ado, here are the 3 biggest gaming releases of June 2020.

Valorant

Riot Games’ free-to-play multiplayer FPS Valorant has been making waves for over a month now, which is thanks to a successful beta period that started at the beginning of April. However, the game will be coming out of its beta phase and launching officially at the beginning of June, where even more people will hop on board. It has drawn positive comparisons to both Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Overwatch, which is no small praise considering how successful each of those games are. Valorant will be available for PC when it launches on June 2nd.

The Last of Us Part II

The Last of Us Part 2 Ellie

In what is undoubtedly the biggest game of the month (and one of the biggest of the whole year), Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us Part II really needs no introduction. Serving as the follow-up to what many called one of the best games of the last console generation, players will assume the role of an older Ellie as she has to continue to survive in a brutal post-apocalyptic world. It looks like things are going to be even more harrowing than they were the first time around, with some unfortunate leaks happening earlier this year revealing some truly grim scenarios. It will launch exclusively for PlayStation 4 on June 19th.

SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated

We’re going to end this list with a dramatically lighter game than the previous one, with SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated rounding things out. While games based off of TV shows are rarely anything worth getting excited about, the original version of this game was truly a diamond in the rough. Developer Purple Lamp Studios has given it a fresh coat of paint as well as new features, such as a new multiplayer horde mode for up to two players available online or offline. Content that was cut from the original release is also being reincorporated into this one, which should make this the definitive version of what is already a solid game. Look for it to hit PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC on June 23rd.

Recruited Since Last Month: More Than Eight Million Helldivers 2 Players

The relentless force of Helldivers 2 shows no signs of slowing down, as recent reports indicate that Arrowhead Games Studios, the Swedish developer behind the game, has sold over eight million copies since its release on both PS5 and PC just last month.

According to TD Cowen analyst Doug Creutz (thanks, VGC), who spoke to Bloomberg, it is believed that the game has exceeded expectations in terms of performance. It’s amazing how word-of-mouth buzz and the unconventional guerilla marketing strategy keep driving up recruitment numbers week after week. Arrowhead’s studio motto, “A game for everyone is a game for no one,” reflects their unwavering commitment to their unique internal design philosophy.

It appears that the PC community has recently surpassed the PlayStation fanbase in terms of player numbers and platform preference. However, thanks to crossplay, both groups continue to benefit from the growing popularity of gaming. Although it’s not particularly thrilling to see yet another service game achieve rapid success, the hardcore nature of Helldivers 2 fills us with optimism for Sony’s ongoing live gaming endeavors. We anticipate dedicating ourselves to the defense of Super Earth for many years to come.

What are your thoughts on Creutz’s sales estimate? Does it come as a surprise to you? Does it exceed or fall short of your expectations? Have you noticed any changes in your level of enthusiasm for the Democratic Party? Has it waned or grown stronger? We would greatly appreciate your feedback in the comments section below.

E3 is long gone, but that doesn’t mean we won’t have any exciting video game events this summer. Geoff Keighley, the host, has just revealed that the highly anticipated Summer Game Fest event is making a comeback on Friday, June 7th, at 5 PT/5 p.m. ET/10 p.m. BST.

In a recent tweet, Keighley assured his followers that a large number of fans will be present at the event, both in person and online. He expressed excitement about the upcoming cross-platform showcase, where the future of video games will be unveiled. Presumably, PlayStation and other gaming companies will have their own separate livestreams. However, Sony has a tendency to support Summer Game Fest, so it’s worth keeping an eye out for any announcements from them.

If you’re thinking of going, tickets will be available for purchase starting on Tuesday, May 7th. It’s definitely an event worth noting on your calendar. So, what are your expectations for this year’s Summer Game Fest? Feel free to share your dream announcements in the comments section below.
