Just when you think the summer season is over, Ubisoft brings us back to the heat and smell of fuel in The Crew: Motorfest. This time we’re traveling to the Hawaiian islands. In this open-world game, we’ll be racing through the city of Honolulu. Additionally, we’ll be able to “test [our] off-road skills on the ashy slopes of a volcano [and] master the perfect curve on the tracks,” according to the game’s official website. We’ll also be able to drive on the beach and adventure through “hidden paths of the luxurious rainforest.” With over 400 cars as well, Ubisoft’s racing open-world title sounds like a nitro boost to the soul.

The highly anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 DLC Phantom Liberty is releasing this month. Starring Idris Elba as Solomon Reed, V and Johnny Silverhand are taken into a new follow-up adventure. This time, you’ll be trying to save the NUSA President in a new area called Dogtown. The game’s Steam page teases that “your decisions impact not only the fate of the characters around you, but also yourself” when it comes to the ending. It’s one of the most anticipated September 2023 games because we can’t wait to see how it ends.

After a lengthy and promising demo, Lies of P is finally releasing this month. This Soulslike is set in a beautiful European-inspired world full of creepy machines and gothic architecture. You play as Pinocchio, a puppet that’s trapped in a horrific world. As he explores it, he’ll “untangle the unfathomable secrets of the city’s elites and choose whether to confront predicaments with the truth or weave lies to overcome them on the journey to find [himself,]” according to the Steam page. Hopefully, the game lives up its impactful demo from earlier this year.

Mortal Kombat 1 continues the fighting game hype this year. WB Games and NetherRealm Studios are bringing a new origin to the series with a fresh reset of the MK timeline. It will also introduce Kameo Fighters that can be summoned to help you pull off incredible combos or get you out of a bad situation. Hopefully, the game lives up to its high expectations. Homelander
