July is an incredibly poor month for PC games in terms of content. I searched very hard to find only three games somewhat interesting.
AntiHero
Antihero is a fast-paced digital board game with an (Oliver) Twist. Recruit street urchins, hire thugs, start a gang, upgrade your guild, steal everything... and bribe, blackmail, and assassinate your way to victory. Includes a story-driven campaign, AI skirmishes, and intense online and offline PvP. The game was released on July 10, 2017 on Microsoft Windows via Steam.
The End Is Nigh
The End Is Nigh is a platforming adventure video game developed by Edmund McMillen and Tyler Glaiel. The End Is Nigh is a platforming adventure game where the player controls Ash, a small black blob. The game has been described as a spiritual successor to McMillen's Super Meat Boy. The game was released on July 12, 2017 on Microsoft Windows via Steam, with future releases planned for PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch.
Pyre
Pyre is an action role-playing sports video game developed by Supergiant Games for Microsoft Windows, Linux, macOS and PlayStation 4. The game takes place in a high fantasy setting. The player controls a character who has been exiled from society and quickly meets three other exiles. The three exiles discover that the player-character is literate and invites them to join their party, nicknaming them the Reader. The Reader aids the exiles and other exiles met during the course of the game in their travels through the land of purgatory as they look to cleanse their souls via defeating other exiles. The story is told through on-screen narrative passages that include a hyperlink-type system used by the player-character to explore the story further. In addition to guiding the exiles during "Rites" which resemble a sports game, the Reader must determine how to help support or improve the party, by performing activities such as scavenging for supplies, learning more of the world's lore, or mentoring the exiles to improve their abilities. It was released on July 25, 2017.
[ To be honest, among these three, I am only interested in 'Pyre'. A very dull month for gaming indeed. ]
