Top 85 Games Trends in June

This list of June 2022 games trends reflects popular trends such as blockchain integration, inclusive gaming initiatives, and a number of new esports partnerships.

One notable example of blockchain integration in gaming is 'Grit.' Grit is a free-to-play western-themed online battle royale title coming to the Epic Games Store. This marks one of the first high-profile blockchain-integrated games coming to a massive platform. The game itself will allow for players to buy in-game items that are linked to NFTs and cryptocurrencies, however, players will also be able to earn these assets by playing.

On the inclusivity side, Microsoft released a new virtual world for Minecraft titled 'BuildAbility.' This world was created in collaboration with a local Canadian school board. With BuildAbility, Microsoft hopes to provide resources for children dealing with accessibility barriers in their schools and communities to overcome these barriers. The resources include positive communication, real-world experiences, and methods to overcome challenges.
