On an average day about a dozen new games are released on Steam. And while we think that’s a good thing, it can be understandably hard to keep up with. Potentially exciting gems are sure to be lost in the deluge of new things to play unless you sort through every single game that is released on Steam. So that’s exactly what we’ve done. If nothing catches your fancy this week, we’ve gathered thebest PC gamesyou can play right now and a running list of the2024 gamesthat are launching this year.

Steam‌ ‌page‌‌Release:‌ June 29Developer:‌ Sublime

Remember the film Twister? This is a videogame about chasing storms, set in a 625 square kilometre open world “fictive reproduction of America’s tornado alley”. You’re a professional storm chaser seeking “valuable” data, which means getting extremely close to very dangerous weather phenomenon, and ideally before any of your competitors can get there first. These quixotic efforts can be conducted with a group of friends online, and the better you get at it the more cash you’ll have to upgrade your vehicle and kit it out with stormproof gear. Outbrk is an Early Access affair: it’ll stay there for two years while the studio continues to improve and add to the game.

Steam‌ ‌page‌‌Release:‌ June 27Developers:‌ daffodil & friendsThink Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater or SSX, but instead of skate- or snowboards you’re rocking around on a unicycle. Yes, that’s right: unicycles are cool enough to receive the pre-millennial pop punk treatment of theye oldePS1 / PS2 extreme sports classics too! Street Uni X is very much a love letter to that period, cribbing not only its attitude but its early 3D art style as well. Unicycle enthusiasts: your time has come. This looks like a lot of tricky fun.

Based on the Spy x Family anime series, SpyXAnya follows the efforts of a kid protagonist—the eponymous Anya—tasked with filling out a photo diary of memories. She’ll visit over a dozen locations, talk to a bunch of whimsical characters, take a lot of photos, partake in many mini-games, and all the while a narrative will unfold. I’m pretty sure this is aimed squarely at kids, but who knows? If you know a young’un who’s a fan of the anime, this looks like some cheerful, harmless fun.

Steam‌ ‌page‌‌Release:‌ June 26Developer:‌ Molegato

Frogun Encore is a standalone expansion for the well-received2022 3D platformer. It doesn’t mess with the formula save for the introduction of local cooperative play, which is always an extremely welcome feature in a cosy 3D platformer. Aside from that, expect some new movements from the protagonist(s), a bunch of tough bosses, and gorgeous Nintendo 64 inspired graphics.
