August 2017 Game Release Calendar: Buy, Try, Die

August 2, 2017

August has finally arrived, bringing with it a long list of hot game releases.

This month’s featured game is Uncharted: The Lost Legacy. As the final Uncharted game to be made by Naughty Dog for the PS4, it’s expected to be an epic finale starring fan favorite Chloe Frazer. The events that unfold will tie together the story to send it off in emotional fashion, and will even introduce some new gameplay angles that haven’t been seen in the franchise before delivered in a standalone package.

There are a variety of other major releases during the month, including a few notable ports of PC titles to console. There’s even a major strategy game coming to the Switch, something you don’t often see with Nintendo.

Below you can find our complete game release calendar for August 2017. Let us know in the comments below which games you plan to buy, those you wish to try, and what games should just die.
