June flew by and now we’re into a hot summer! Don’t want to go outside? Then stay inside and play games set outside! This month we have the latest installments in the PGA Tour and Formula 1 sports franchises as well as an all new Wolfenstein game. Let’s dive in!
Rory McIlroy PGA Tour
Release Date: July 14th
Platforms: XBOX One, PlayStation 4
The first new EA golf game since the late 1990s to not have Tiger Woods on the cover, EA’s new PGA Tour features current world #1 Rory McIlroy. The new game features course rendered on the Frostbite engine, rendering an entire course at once rather than on a hole-by-hole basis, reducing load times significantly. More importantly it will feature many real world courses including Royal Troon, St Andrews, Sawgrass, and more! There will also be some new challenges including a game set on a battlefield map and one inside a nightclub, as well as one in the Grand Canyon. A must have for any sports fan!
Wolfenstein: The Old Blood
Release Date: July 21st
Platforms: XBOX One, PlayStation 4
Wolfenstein: The Old Blood is finally out on disk! This stand-alone expansion pack/prequel to last years Wolfenstein: The New Order follows protagonist B.J. Blazkowitcz in an alternate history 1946 as he takes on the Nazi Paranormal Division. A great balance of stealth and action gameplay featuring many new weapons for you to dual wield and take out Nazi soldiers and monsters.
F1 2015
Release Date: July 21st
Platforms: XBOX One, PlayStation 4
Codemasters are back with a brand new Formula 1 game! Re-written nearly from scratch with a new game engine F1 2015 sees dramatic improvements to the graphics, performance, and most importantly the game A.I.. Additionally the game will take advantage of the voice recognition capabilities of the XBOX One and PlayStation 4 and let you speak to your pit crew to request tire changes, weather updates, and more!
All that will come in handy if you’re brave enough to try the all new Pro Season mode in which there will be no heads up display (just car consoles) and no assistance for steering, traction, or gear shifting!
