July 2025 – Video Game Release Dates
July is a good month for anyone who picked up a Nintendo Switch 2 at launch, because Donkey Kong Bananza hits the hybrid system on July 17. If you didn't buy the pricy new system, you may be interested in grabbing Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4, Grounded 2, or Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound (which has a fantastic demo on Steam). Or, if you're more into relaxing games to chill out while playing, Tales of the Shire is out on the 29th.
