June brings with it a range of games that traverse the whole gamut of fighting to sporting adventures, all of which will keep you immersed to create unmatched experiences.

Street Fighter 6Street Fighter games are known for setting the standard in the 2D fighting game genre, but Street Fighter 6 particularly stands out. The new Drive System adds various options and metre-management decisions to the fighting mechanics from the start of every round. The starting roster is the best yet, and its online netcode has been superb throughout. It has a highly evolved combat system that includes three control options (Modern, Dynamic, and Classic) and a new Drive System allowing multiple combat choices. The game also excels in smaller details that make a huge difference. Although the story and single-player World Tour progress slowly, this flaw is only a minor setback. Whether you're a newcomer or a seasoned veteran in fighting games, Street Fighter 6 is a must-play.Available for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4.Image: streetfighter.com — **Street Fighter 6**

Jurassic World Evolution 2In this game, you will take on the role of building and managing a dinosaur theme park. As you engineer new breeds, build sturdy pens, and select staff to care for your bloodthirsty dinosaurs, you must be mindful of their territorial instincts and potential turf wars with other species. It's like spinning plates, but one plate is a T-Rex, and another is a pack of Velociraptors. If you drop the plates, your visitors could end up as dinosaur food. However, if you successfully manage your park, you can create peaceful nature reserves and potentially even manage escaped dinos across the United States in the campaign mode. Additionally, there are Challenge and Sandbox modes where you can build traditional parks and even include flying and marine reptiles. For fans of the films, the Chaos Theory mode allows you to take over failed Jurassic Parks and try to do a better job. All PlayStation Plus members can download Jurassic World Evolution 2 for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. — **Jurassic World Evolution 2**

NBA 2K 23NBA 2K 23 is the cutting-edge basketball game you'd expect, with all the latest teams, Superstars, and improved controls. The player AI in this particular entry has an eye on the past. Our first destination in the time machine is the Jordan Challenge, a campaign built around the legendary player Michael Jordan. The mode puts you in his massive self-branded shoes to relive games from his early college days up to his final championship victory in 1998. There are interviews with teammates and rivals to lend context at each moment, delivered with era-specific visuals to capture the look and feel of the NBA over the last 40 years. The same visual tricks are deployed in the 'my NBA mode', which shifts the focus from a single icon to managing a franchise starting in various basketball eras so you could try to rewrite the outcomes of the magic bird era of the ’80s, or Jordan's Chicago Bulls run in the early ’90s. The game's incredible player AI is also tweaked to represent each ERA's favoured tactics and play style. Available for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. Image: store.steampowered.com — **NBA 2K 23**
