Today’s major gaming announcements came from this morning’s Nintendo Direct, but Xbox has also revealed the second wave of games heading to its Game Pass subscription service this month. Available today as a day one release is Still Wakes the Deep on Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X|S. From developer The Chinese Room, this horror game traps players on an oil rig in the North Sea, where an unknowable horror has come aboard.
Arriving tomorrow, June 19, on Cloud, Console, and PC is My Time at Sandrock, a spiritual successor of sorts to My Time at Portia. The game takes place in a wholesome, post-apocalyptic world 300 years after the Day of Calamity destroyed most modern technologies. The game borrows features from crafting, survival, and cozy games, with an emphasis on saving the town from economic ruin. June 20 sees the arrival of Keplerth on PC, a 2D sandbox RPG where players will survive, build, farm, fight, and explore their way to victory on a hostile alien planet.
Soccer fans can look forward to EA Sports FC 24, available on Cloud, Console, and PC via EA Play on June 25. Arriving just in time for UEFA EURO 2024, EA Sports FC 24 lets players lead their nation against the best as they try to become Champions of Europe. On June 26, both SteamWorld Dig and its sequel, SteamWorld Dig 2, will be available. The former heads to Cloud and Console, while the latter will be available on Console and PC. Both games are platform mining adventures with Metroidvania influences.
Finally, Robin Hood – Sherwood Builders heads to Cloud, PC, and Xbox Series X|S on June 28. The game puts players in Robin Hood’s band of outlaws in 12th century England on their mission for a free Nottingham. The open-world RPG features base-building and crafting features.
