Do you believe in yourself and think you've got what it takes to become the wealthiest person in the whole of Alaska? Prove it, in Gold Rush: The Game on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.

It's been a while since Ubisoft have pushed a Far Cry experience onto gamers, with Far Cry 5 in 2018 and Far Cry New Dawn a year later the last efforts. Yet after being teased and then delayed, Far Cry 6 is back and today Ubisoft have dropped all the details you will ever need, with fully confirmed release date, trailers, pre-order bonuses and more delivered.

You'll pretty much know whether Bus Simulator 21 is going to be for you or not just through the title. But if you are one of the many who are looking forward to the release of astragon Entertainment and stillalive Studios' bus sim, you'll no doubt be extremely pleased to hear that the 2021 variant promises a host of enhancements over that which came previously - with a full day/night cycle, hot bus swapping and a brand new United States map in and amongst the new features.

You might not want to mix the already brilliant Tetris with any other ideas, but if you do, we reckon Jenga is a good call. And that makes Trenga Unlimited instantly appealing.

Ratalaika Games know a thing or two about publishing games, for it is they who have delivered a host of weird and wonderful oddities to the Xbox, PlayStation and Switch marketplaces over the months and years. In fact, it's rare for a week to go by when a delightful little Ratalaika tale doesn't drop onto console and this week is no different as we get the opportunity to play out the tale of A Little Lily Princess.

Looking to soar into a new adventure? Reckon you've got your wings primed and ready to fly high? The magical feathered world of Eagle Island Twist is now opening up.

We love kicking back with an Artifex Mundi game, and god knows there's enough of them present on the Xbox Store to allow for full weeks to be lost to their mysteries. That library of Hidden Object titles has now expanded though, with the arrival of Family Mysteries 3: Criminal Mindset. And it just so happens to usher in an all new bundle collection too.

Whilst there are plenty of new IPs making waves of console - think of Biomutant for one - there are just as many, and quite probably more, who prefer to run the retro route, working some old-school magic in hope that nostalgia will drag gamers in. That's the case with Eight Dragons as it launches on Xbox, PlayStation and Switch.

There's obviously a place for FIFA in the gaming world, and PES happily launches every year, just about hanging on to the coat tails of EA's most successful title. But is there room in the gaming scene for a football game which doesn't have an unlimited budget, doesn't have the big licenses and was created by just one person? We get to find out with the launch of Super Arcade Soccer 2021.

There are many games which have allowed us the opportunity to become the most feared of monster hunters - the brilliant Monster Hunter: World, for one - but not many arm you with just a crossbow. As the title suggests though, that's exactly the case in Crossbow Crusade on Xbox.

Push the F1 to one side, throw the WRC into the dirt and forget about the oval lapping of NASCAR. Today it's all about one series of motorsport - the Superstar Racing Experience, as SRX: The Game hits Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4 and PC.

Sonic is 30 - yep, let that sink in - and to celebrate SEGA are going big with the blue blur. And the biggest of announcements in our eyes is that of Sonic Colors: Ultimate - especially as a fully confirmed Xbox, PlayStation, Switch and PC release date has become known.

It was obvious that the future of Aragami was bright, with the release of the original game and that of Aragami: Shadow Edition on Xbox providing players with not just a beautiful world, but the chance to enjoy a lovingly crafted master-ninja power trip. Aragami 2 has big shoes to fill in fact, but come September it'll be looking to excite players once again. And confirmation of a new gameplay trailer and full release date certainly means it's on track to do so.
