The Biggest Games Releasing in June 2025

The Highly Anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 Arrives with a Bang

The Nintendo Switch 2 is finally upon us, and the hype is palpable. With over 20 games set to launch alongside the new console, the lineup is nothing short of impressive. From shiny "Switch 2 Editions" of existing favorites to brand-new titles tailored for the upgraded hardware, there's something for everyone.

One title that has captured the attention of gamers is the ambitious open-world reimagining of the iconic Mario Kart franchise, aptly titled Mario Kart World. After years of refining the formula, Nintendo is poised to shake up the genre in a major way, and fans are eager to hit the gas and explore the expansive new racing landscapes.

Walking Simulators Take Center Stage

June also brings two highly anticipated "walking simulators" – but these are far from the slow-burn narrative experiences we've come to expect. Death Stranding 2 and Dune: Awakening offer players the chance to trek across surreal landscapes, navigate treacherous environments, and test their survival skills.

In Death Stranding 2, players will once again don their backpacks and navigate the strange world, delivering packages and dealing with unorthodox foes. Dune: Awakening, on the other hand, challenges players to survive the harsh desert of Arrakis, where the slightest misstep can lead to becoming worm food.

Zelda Shines Brighter Than Ever

Fans of Nintendo's iconic The Legend of Zelda franchise will be thrilled to see Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom receive the deluxe treatment on the Switch 2. With sharper resolutions, smoother frame rates, and full HDR support, these beloved adventures will shine brighter than ever before. Additionally, the new Zelda Notes mobile app promises to be an indispensable companion for players, offering a collectible tracker, GPS, and more.

Cyberpunk Comes to the Switch 2

CD Projekt Red's Cyberpunk 2077, once notorious for its disastrous launch, is making its way to the Nintendo Switch 2. Thanks to the console's powerful Nvidia chip and support for DLSS technology, the game will run remarkably well, allowing players to experience the cyberpunk world in all its glory on the go.

As the gaming world eagerly awaits the arrival of the Nintendo Switch 2, there's no doubt that June 2025 will be a month filled with unforgettable gaming experiences, from the open-world thrills of Mario Kart World to the desert survival challenges of Dune: Awakening.
