From June 22 to June 28, 2026, three very different games are set to take the spotlight: the desert extraction expeditions of SAND: Raiders of Sophie, the fast vertical firefights of multiplayer shooter EMPULSE, and the return of Star Fox on Nintendo Switch 2. This is not a ranked list or a complete release calendar, but a focused weekly selection built around games with distinct ideas. One enters Early Access with modular walking machines and high-risk scavenging, one wants movement to define every competitive encounter, and one brings back the arcade space combat formula of one of Nintendo\u2019s most recognizable series.<\/p>\n

SAND: Raiders of Sophie<\/h2>\n

SAND: Raiders of Sophie opens the week on June 22 in Early Access for PC. The game takes players to Sophie, a desert world in an alternate setting shaped by abandoned cities, shipwrecks, storms, and valuable resources waiting to be recovered. Its structure is built around PvPvE expeditions: players can head out alone or with a squad, search the hostile landscape for loot, and attempt to reach extraction before losing everything they have collected. What separates it from more familiar extraction shooters is the Trampler, a massive walking machine that works as transportation, storage, shelter, and a combat platform all at once.<\/p>\n
