As we head into the rest of September game releases, gamers have a lot to look forward to. From major franchise releases to exciting new indies, this month is packed with titles across all platforms. Whether you’re into RPGs, horror, sports, or party games, there’s something dropping almost every week to keep your library growing. Here’s a breakdown of the upcoming games to watch for during the rest of September.

Among the September game releases, Borderlands 4 promises more loot, more guns, and probably another vault nobody asked for—but hey, who’s complaining when chaos is this fun? If that’s too intense, you could always drift your way into Garfield Kart 2: All You Can Drift, a game that bravely asks, “What if Nintendo’s Mario Kart, but Monday energy?” These September game releases are truly serving variety, from post-apocalyptic frostbite in Frostpunk 2 to the deeply important task of… farming slimes. Yes, Slime Rancher 2 is back to prove that hoarding goo is, in fact, a valid career path.

And let’s not forget the artistic excellence of Emotionless: The Last Ticket—because nothing screams “fun Friday night” like soul-crushing indie sadness. Of course, these September game releases also include LEGO Voyagers, for those of us who want to explore the galaxy one plastic brick at a time, and PAC-MAN World 2: Re-PAC, reminding us that even yellow circles need a remaster. With so many September game releases, your wallet won’t just cry—it’ll file a restraining order. And yes, there’s a new Mortal Kombat too, because what’s a month of September game releases without at least one uppercut to the face?
