Two months ago, the June 2020 game releases definitely didn't look so good as it does now. Sony delayed the launch of The Last of Us Part II, but backtrack on its decision only a few weeks later, which is why June is now one of the most important months for PlayStation 4 players.

The month of June kicks off with Command & Conquer Remastered Collection, which is scheduled for release on the second day of the month. The bundle includes Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn, Command & Conquer: Red Alert, and all of their respective expansions, which have been rebuilt in 4K-capable graphics.

The same day EA's classic strategy game launches on PC, another high-profile game, Valorant, the multiplayer shooter from Riot Games, is supposed to arrive on PC. The Nintendo Switch version of The Outer Worlds releases on June 5, followed by Samurai Shodown that will be launched on PC on June 11.

Samurai Shodown: Neogeo Collection is coming to PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One on June 11, while Beyond Blue is scheduled for release on the same day on the same platforms. The next big release is happening on June 16 when Desperados 3 launches on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

Disintegration, the new shooter from co-Halo creator Marcus Lehto is set for release on June 16 on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, alongside Hardspace: Shipbreaker that enters Steam Early Access.

One of the biggest game releases of the year, The Last of Us Part II is scheduled for June 19. Burnout Paradise Remastered is coming to Nintendo Switch on the same day, followed by SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated (PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One) on June 23.

Several other smaller titles will be released in the last week of June, such as Ninjala (Nintendo Switch) on June 24, Anno History Collection (PC) and Mr. Driller Drilland (PC, Nintendo Switch) on June 25, Pokemon Sword and Shield: The Isle of Armor expansion (Nintendo Switch) and Phogs (PC, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch).
