The Most Anticipated Games Coming in July 2026

We have officially entered the second half of 2026, and after the release of dozens of great games already, July kicks off with a collection of interesting games that cater to all expectations, especially for fans of classic games returning in July in the form of remastered versions. Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game Release Date: July 23 Platforms: PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S It seems Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game has many factors in its favor. It’s based on a popular title; imagine being able to control elements through martial arts, and it features a cast of beloved characters, looking stunning in play thanks to hand-drawn animations that mimic the original work. It’s not a team-based fighting game, but rather chose a 1-on-1 face-off style. Initial impressions have been promising concerning battles between iconic characters, and the game feels like a celebration of the series, coinciding with its preparations for a new era. Doom: The Dark Ages – Revelations Release Date: July 7 Platforms: PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S Doom Slayer returns this month, but this time, hell literally freezes over. The new expansion continues the secret lore of Doom Slayer before his return in the 2016 Doom game, displaying the betrayal that left him injured and trapped in a state of purgatory, forcing him to confront harsh realities. Revelations adds new stages including more complex puzzles and new demons to eliminate, along with the new deadly weapon, the Chain Spear. Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced Release Date: July 9 Platforms: PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag is one of the most popular entries in the series over the years, but it’s undeniable that it looks dated compared to modern entries. Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced aims to update the game for today’s audience, and so far, the results look very promising. In addition to enhanced graphics and refined gameplay, the many small changes made behind the scenes may be the real reason the return to this classic full of pirate adventures is worth experiencing again. Echoes of Aincrad: Sword Art Online Release Date: July 10 Platforms: PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S While offering a Souls-like game inspired by anime is no longer a new concept, Echoes of Aincrad seems to be a fun addition to this genre known for its high difficulty. The game is based on the early events of the original Sword Art Online light novel series and features familiar characters like Kirito and Asuna, with the option to fully customize character builds, along with a large number of enemies who seek to end your adventure before it truly begins. Palworld Release Date: July 10 Platforms: PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S Continuing with the creature-collecting vibes, Palworld is preparing to launch its full 1.0 version this month.

And this won’t be the end of the game’s journey, as Pocketpair studio has big plans to support it with post-launch content.
