Hell Is Us – September 4

Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S

As a passionate gamer, I’ve stumbled upon a hidden gem that might be right up the alley for soulslike enthusiasts like me. This game, while not as popular yet, offers a captivating experience with its slow-paced, action-packed RPG combat system. It boasts an unforgiving world that truly tests your mettle and survival skills. The game’s unique selling point lies in its blend of supernatural entities and sci-fi elements, set against the backdrop of a post-apocalyptic landscape. In this harsh world, you’ll have to fight tooth and nail just to stay alive!

Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion – September 5

Platforms: PC, PS5, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X/S

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2: Legacy of the Forge DLC – September 9

Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S

In the continuation of the highly successful game from a few months back, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, they’ve excelled at infusing a more authentic touch into open-world RPGs by setting it within historical rather than fantasy realms. The latest expansion pack, Legacy of the Forge, hones in on Henry’s innate skill – blacksmithing. However, don’t be surprised if an exciting adventure also weaves its way into the mix.

Borderlands 4 – September 12

Platforms: PC, PS5, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X/S

Alright, gang! Hear me out – Borderlands is making a comeback, baby! And while I’m hoping it brings something fresh to the table compared to the last installment, I know it’s going to deliver all the chaotic fun and loot-shooting action that we’ve come to love from the series. Honestly, it feels like Borderlands has found its sweet spot in this unique world of shoot ’em up and looting mayhem, and I can’t wait to dive back in!

Lego Voyagers – September 15

Platforms: PC, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X/S

Although it was recently unveiled, this game could be a surprise success of the year based on its showcase at Gamescom. It’s a unique cooperative puzzle-platformer where you control two small Lego blocks with an ambition to explore space. To achieve this, you’ll need to construct various Lego pieces, allowing you to reach the stars. If you’re seeking a compact and snug gaming experience, this game is your top choice.

Dying Light: The Beast – September 19

Platforms: PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S

As the Dying Light series progresses, it shifts focus from using parkour to evade zombies to actually attacking them aggressively. Whether this change is positive or not is subjective, but in Dying Light: The Beast, you can enjoy both experiences. You traverse an open world by jumping between rooftops (even with up to three companions), and engage in Beast Mode to brutally crush the undead.

Slime Rancher 2 – September 23

Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S

Approximately two years after being in early access, the follow-up to the indie sensation Slime Rancher is now launching as a full version on PC, and will also be available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. The new installment offers a fresh collection of islands to discover, with new slime species, farmable foods, and hidden secrets to find as you delve further into the game’s enigmas and ensure your slimes remain content and profitable.

Silent Hill f – September 25

Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S

The awaited new addition to the Silent Hill series, Silent Hill f, is finally here after a long wait, and it looks promising to deliver an exceptional survival horror experience that builds upon the renewed enthusiasm for the franchise ignited by the Silent Hill 2 Remake. In this game, you take on the role of a Japanese school girl, and trust me, encountering your classmates transformed into grotesque monsters will make for a petrifying experience like no other.

Sonic Racing: Crossworlds – September 25

Platforms: PC, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S

In contrast to previous Sonic racing games often falling short of expectations, Crossworlds might be the exception, appearing to offer an exciting mix of kart racing action. It’s generating a lot of buzz due to its unique roster of characters set to join after release, such as Joker from Persona 5, SpongeBob SquarePants, Minecraft Steve, and Hatsune Miku. Seems like Smash Bros might have some serious competition!

EA Sports FC 26 – September 26

Platforms: PC, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S

More sports. You already know if you want this or not, we’re not going to try to sell you.

Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles – September 30

Platforms: PC, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X/S

Here’s my attempt:

As a gaming enthusiast, I’m pumped that the remaster of Final Fantasy Tactics is coming at the end of this month! Whether you prefer the classic experience or the upgraded graphics and mechanics, there’s something for everyone. Admittedly, the enhanced visuals might not be jaw-dropping compared to contemporaries like Triangle Strategy. However, the revamped gameplay mechanics should cater well to today’s gamers, offering the option to adjust difficulty levels if needed.
