Good thing the days are looking longer around here, because I’m going to need my full stamina bar and an irresponsible 2am bedtime to keep up with the cozy game launches in June. The calendar may not look as long as the list from May yet but just you wait until we clear the first week of June. I think things are going to drop in hot all month long.
June cozy game forecast: Sudden launch watch 🌪️
June is always a whirlwind in gaming because of the many, many publisher and platform showcases where we’ll hear announcements and reveals for upcoming games (check our Summer Game Fest schedule for more). Sometimes games will even surprise launch during a showcase, or reveal a very imminent release date, so there are probably going to be even more cozy games this month that aren’t on the calendar yet. Here’s a couple events to be aware of in cozy gaming this month:
- Wholesome Direct: A showcase dedicated just to cozy games that will air on YouTube on June 6.
- Steam Next Fest: Another one of Steam’s regular big demo events runs June 15 – June 22 and lots of cozy games tend to participate.
Solarpunk | June 8
As of the start of the month, Solarpunk has hit spot #16 in the list of most wishlisted games on Steam (via Steamdb). No surprise there, everyone still loves a crafting and exploration game.
