August has arrived, and with it, new PC game releases. Take a look at the top 5 PC games you should play. Saints Row, Thymesia, Hearthstone: Murder at Castle Nathria, and other titles are included.
August has arrived, and PC gamers have reason to rejoice because some exciting games will be released this month. The previous month was a letdown, but this month appears to be making up for it. While this month will not be as big as February 2022, when Elden Ring was released, some games will still catch gamers' attention. Thymesia is one of them, providing a similar experience to Elden Ring but in a completely different aesthetic.
Aside from that, the Saints Row reboot will be welcomed by long-time fans of the franchise. This month also sees the release of Hearthstone: Murder at Castle Nathria, the second expansion of the year, as well as a massive update to Total War: Warhammer 3 Immortal Empires. Finally, Immortality will provide something unique to mystery game fans. Let's take a look at the top 5 PC games that will be released in August.
Thymesia
The upcoming game adds a unique twist to the RPG genre. Taking a page from Dark Souls, the game is a souls like in which players must use the power of death and disease to curse their enemies. The game, developed by OverBorder Studio and published by Team17, follows the main character Corvus as he battles knights and monsters in a medieval world. Furthermore, Corvus can use plague as a weapon system. The game will be released on August 18.
Saints Row
Saints Row IV was released in 2013. Fans have been clamoring for a new Saints Row game ever since. While it isn't exactly a new game, the reboot is promising enough to pique the interest of long-time fans. The core gameplay remains the same, with your main goal remaining to take over the nine districts and launch illegitimate businesses to help fund your ambitions. Everything in the game has been updated, from the graphics to the gameplay mechanics. A detailed character creator is also included, as well as a drop-in cooperative multiplayer mode. The game will be available on August 23rd.
Hearthstone: Murder at Castle Nathria
Murder at Castle Nathria is the second expansion for the popular online card game this year. The expansion adds 135 new cards to the game, as well as the Location card type and the Infuse keyword. This introduces new mechanics as well as new deck combinations for players to experiment with. The expansion was added on August 2nd.
Total War: Warhammer 3 Immortal Empires
The highly anticipated Warhammer update, which will merge all three campaigns of the game into a massive single map, will be released this August. Unlike previous campaigns, the emphasis is on map conquest rather than survival battles and mission objectives. A lot of things are changing, such as race additions and victory conditions. Players should expect a completely different game when it launches on August 23.
Immortality
Immortality, unlike the other games on this list, is a narrative-driven game. To solve the mystery of missing actress Marissa Marcel, players will have to watch archival footage. The game will be released on August 30th.
