List by Jim S.
June is meant to be the month where game releases quieten down as the gaming community instead pays attention to E3 and all the games that are on the way.
But not this year. Oh no. We’ve got sims, JRPGs, crime stories, fighting games, and even a spot of racing on the way. What’s on your June “to do” list? Let us know in the comments!

Tomodachi Life – 3DS – US Release Date 6/6/2014
Nintendo’s new life simulator has players dropping their Miis into a world where almost anything can happen. There seems to be a lot to do in Tomodachi Life from watching your Miis in their daily lives to playing mini games and helping your Miis out by giving them gifts and levelling them up. Something new may happen everyday its sure to be a fun game for anyone. Unless you think same sex relationships should be in life sim games. If you’re in to equality you’re better off buying one of the Sims games.
Enemy Front – PS3, 360 – US Release Date 6/10/2014
CI Games will bring players back to World War 2 in this new FPS from the makers of the Sniper: Ghost Warrior series of games. Enemy Front will let players play the kind of game they want be that being sneaky, or reenacting a scene from the Expendables movies. With open ended levels and muti-player game modes there’s a little of everything for all types of FPS players. The game is also powered by CryENGINE technology, so it should be pretty to look at as well.
XBlaze Code: Embryo – PS3, Vita – US Release Date 6/24/2014
XBlaze is a visual novel prequel to the BlazBlue series. You play as Touya Kagari, a sophomore at the Hakuou North Academy. When Touya comes across a wounded man he rushes to the man’s side to see if he needs help but the man stands up and attacks, screaming, “You’re an enemy!” Suddenly a small, cute girl with an enormous sword came charging in to rescue Touya. So yes, it should be odd, but good fun.
Atelier Rorona Plus: The Alchemist of Arland – PS3, Vita (digitally only) – US Release Date 6/24/2014

There will be new story chapters so even if you have played the original there will be something new here for you.
