Happy Pride! June has arrived, a month which usually pushes folks out of the comforts of air-conditioned indoor spaces into the burning ambience of the sun. But if you’re looking for excuses to stay indoors, this month has a number of exciting releases to check out, including some long-awaited DLCs for some of the most popular games in recent memory.
And don’t worry, if you’re looking to get some gaming in and soak up the warm weather outside, we’ve got a few portable titles to check out as well.
Destiny 2: The Final Shape – June 4

The expansion will include a new subclass that draws from both the Light and Darkness, and will also see the return of Cayde-6—and, yes, Nathan Fillion will return to voice the Exo Hunter himself!
