June 2022 video game releases are looking to toss aside the concept of the "summer drought" of video gaming, as the month has some pretty heavy hitters lined up across all platforms. June's list of titles is substantial, and the list may not even be fully complete due to potential shadow drops during the various conferences set this month. However, from the revival of the beloved Mario Strikers series to the delayed-so-much-it-was-considered-to-be-a-myth Cuphead DLC, June is looking to keep players busy well into the 3rd quarter of this year.
Although May 2022's game releases had a pretty wide breadth of genres, June is looking to cater more to fans of Japanese developed titles. However, June will sport a more extensive selection of AAA titles than last month, all set to meet their intended release dates. Indie titles will also make a strong showing, with a couple of long-awaited jewels finally hitting shelves. Those looking for multiplayer games are very much in luck, as most of the offerings this month will provide actual single and multiplayer content.
Mario Strikers: Battle League will launch on June 10 with full online play for those looking to get their Mario sports fix. That same day, Supermassive Games' spiritual successor to Until Dawn, The Quarry, will be released for fans seeking more of a horror experience. Later in the month, retro fans will get to jump into the golden days of the Sega Genesis and the arcade scenes, with Sonic Origins on June 23 and Capcom Fighting Collection on June 24, the same day that the Dynasty Warriors-Esque Fire Emblem: Three Hopes releases. Finally, Capcom will close out the month with the Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak expansion on June 30. But not to be outdone entirely by the AAA juggernauts, indie darling Cuphead will finally see its DLC update released - Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course - on June 30.

More titles may be announced as the month progresses, and many likely will due to the tendency for companies to shadow drop titles during the midst of significant conferences. If Nintendo does have a Direct in June, a few more titles will likely arrive this month on the Switch. Until then, this list compiles June's 2022 major game releases.
