July 2026 Release Roundup

July 2026 packs a lot in: a major remake, a long-awaited 1.0 launch, and a cluster of heavyweight Korean MMORPG updates all in the same month. Below is the month's slate in date order, covering console and PC launches through to mobile server events. The wider lineup lives on the Upcoming Games page.

Global console and PC releases

The month's biggest talking point is Palworld 1.0. Early access ends July 10 with the full release, which adds the new World Tree region and more Pals. It ships on PC, PS5, Xbox and Game Pass simultaneously, and existing owners upgrade free.

Halo: Campaign Evolved, out July 28, is a full remake of the original Halo: Combat Evolved. It marks the first time the series launches on PS5 day and date, and it's on Game Pass from day one. Ubisoft joins on July 9 with Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, rebuilding the 2013 game in the current Anvil engine with parry-focused combat and expanded naval battles.

Japanese IP action RPGs are strong this month too. Sword Art Online: Echoes of Aincrad reinterprets the series' Aincrad arc and launches July 10 with Korean support, while Granblue Fantasy: Relink – Endless Ragnarok returns July 9 as a large expansion with new story and characters. Co-op Lovecraftian horror The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu goes global on July 15.

Nintendo Switch 2 exclusives

The Switch 2 summer lineup stands out. Star Fox is a cinematic remake of Star Fox 64, out in Korea July 2 with Joy-Con 2 mouse controls. On July 23, Splatoon Raiders arrives as the series' first single-player spin-off. Fighting game fans should note Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game, out July 2 across all platforms.

Korean PC and console releases

Korean studios have real presence this month. Kusan: City of Wolves, a hardcore top-down shooter that Circle From Dot spent eight years building, launches July 30 in a city that reimagines Korean traditional culture through a futurist lens. Nihon Falcom's action RPG KYOTO XANADU -the Blooming Phantom- releases its Korean version simultaneously on July 16, and the same day eBaseball: PRO SPIRIT 2026 arrives with the series' first Korean subtitles. PC and console releases are collected on the PC & Console Games page.

New servers and major updates

Popular MMORPG updates cluster here as well. Lost Ark adds the new Dimensioner class on July 8, an original class built around moving through space and time, with pre-registration already open. Wemade's Night Crows runs its 5th class advancement update on July 16, adding a top progression tier and new party content. Live-service giant Genshin Impact opened July with the 6.7 "Luna VIII" update and new five-star character Sandrone. Server and event news continues on the New Servers page.
