Game Release Dates In July 2018: Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, And Xbox One
<p>It's July, which means we've finally hit the second half of 2018. Summer usually has a reputation for being a rather dry period for exciting games, but this month looks to have some interesting titles to keep you busy during the warm and sunny days. In the month of July, there's a surprising amount of remasters and re-releases looking to find new homes on <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/pc/">PC</a>, <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/ps4/">PS4</a>, <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/nintendo-switch/">Switch</a>, and <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/xbox-one/">Xbox One</a>--which includes <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/sonic-mania/">Sonic Mania Plus</a> and the cleverly named <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/red-faction-guerrilla/">Red Faction: Guerilla Re-Mars-tered Edition</a>. While remasters and ports are common, July certainly has them in healthy abundance.</p><p>Along with these remasters, we also have the first-time releases of <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/octopath-traveler/">Octopath Traveler</a> and <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/the-banner-saga-3/">The Banner Saga 3</a>, which should keep RPG and strategy fans engaged for quite sometime.
