July’s release schedule includes a remake of a fan favourite Assassin’s Creed, a couple of new Nintendo exclusives, and the debut of Halo on PlayStation 5.

Believe it or not, we’re halfway through 2026 now, although in video game terms that’s not so exciting, because it also means we’re in the middle of the usual summer games drought.

June might have been filled with multiple gaming showcases, and saw the opening of GTA 6 pre-orders, but there weren’t many big name game releases, and it’s not much different in July.

Even so, there are still some intriguing new video games worth saving your money and time for, including two new Nintendo titles, the long awaited remake of Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag, and a PlayStation 5 release that would’ve seemed completely impossible a decade or so ago.

Rhythm Paradise Groove

Nintendo Switch

Not only is Rhythm Paradise Groove the first new entry in the Rhythm Paradise series in over a decade, but it’s also Nintendo’s final first party exclusive for the original Nintendo Switch… at least that we know of, as the company has suggested it still intends to support the console alongside the Switch 2.

Regardless, Rhythm Paradise Groove promises to be the biggest entry in the series so far, after spending much of its life in the shadow of WarioWare. Aside from offering 80 rhythm minigames to master, there’ll be a neat side mode that emulates turn based role-playing games and some very entertaining multiplayer modes.

There’s a free demo that covers five of the single-player minigames and while we don’t expect this to be a heavy hitter come launch, it’s oddball eccentricities might earn it some new fans, especially those who enjoyed the humour of Tomodachi Life.

Release date: July 2

Doom: The Dark Ages – Revelations

PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC

This is only an expansion for Doom: The Dark Ages (and it won’t be the only one, according to Bethesda) but it does promise to be a sizable piece of DLC.

Doom: The Dark Ages – Revelations continues the plot of the base game and while we’re not a fan of Doomguy losing his helmet, he does get a fancy new spear weapon for a batch of new levels set in an icy purgatory he must escape from.

While this is paid DLC, a free update to the game’s Ripatorium arena mode will arrive on the same day, that adds further customisation options and, for anyone who clears the Revelations DLC, new maps, weapons, and demon enemies.

Release date: July 7

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced

PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC

Easily one of the worst kept secrets of all time, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced has been rumoured for years and is a full remake of the original Black Flag from 2013, which has always been one of the more popular and well-regarded entries in Ubisoft’s flagship series.

Aside from a graphical glow-up, Ubisoft promises new and improved gameplay while remaining faithful to the original, so don’t expect this to be a role-playing game like modern entries such as Assassin’s Creed Shadows.

The story is unchanged too, but there’ll be additional missions focused on characters like Blackbeard, and it sounds like the modern day subplot will be downplayed this time.

Release date: July 9

Palworld 1.0

PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC

Palworld made a huge splash when it launched in early access at the beginning of 2024, thanks to its Pokémon-with-guns premise, which unsurprisingly had some people deeming it a potential Pokémon killer despite being more of a survival game than a role-player.

It is utterly bereft of original ideas – so much so that Nintendo is suing developer Pocketpair over potential patent infringement – but Palworld has chugged along with numerous updates and is now poised to exit early access.

So far, developer Pocketpair has promised new pals to capture, new areas to explore, and a wing pack that allows you to fly through the air as part of the 1.0 update – as well as new story content involving the mysterious World Tree.

In case you’re wondering if Nintendo’s lawsuit threatens to stifle any of Palworld’s plans, it’s been suggested by IP expert Florian Mueller that even if Nintendo wins, all it may get out of it is $30,000 (about £22,700) in ‘chump change.’

Release date: July 10

D-Topia

PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, and PC

Billed as a ‘gentle paced puzzle adventure,’ D-Topia comes from indie game publisher Annapurna Interactive (Mixtape, Wanderstop) and is developed by a small Japanese studio called Marumittu Games.

Set in a world where AI is used to ‘maximise happiness,’ you play as a Facilitator whose job is to ensure the titular D-Topia facility runs as intended and its residents are kept happy by solving a variety of logic puzzles.

It’s unclear whether this will have any biting satire on the current state of AI technology, but the trailers do hint at something sinister brewing beneath the chill vibes and presentation.

There’s a free demo available already, although it’s only on PC, via Steam, despite D-Topia launching for consoles too.

Release date: July 14

Denshattack!

PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC

Wait, didn’t we already include Denshattack! on our most anticipated games of June list? Yes, but just a week after that went live, developer Undercoders announced it was delaying the game until July.

Everything we said before still stands, though. Denshattack!’s unique premise of high-speed train driving while doing Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater style flips and tricks is enjoyably over-the-top and it shares similar vibes with Sega’s Jet Set Radio games, thanks to its graphics and art style.

Speaking of Jet Set Radio, Denshattack! has landed one of that game’s composers, Richard Jacques, to work on the soundtrack alongside the likes of Persona series composer Shoji Meguro and Daytona USA’s Takenobu Mitsuyoshi (this guy),

They even snagged Nintendo’s Ryo Nagamastu, whose credits include the soundtracks for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Splatoon 3. So, if nothing else, Denshattack!’s music promises to be amazing.

Release date: July 15

Moss: The Forgotten Relic

PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, and PC

Moss and its sequel are among the best PlayStation VR games out there, as they’re incredibly charming, full of inventive puzzles, and make fantastic use of the VR technology.

The decline in VR support, though, is what no doubt prompted developer Polyarc to remaster both games and bundle them together in a non-VR package.

Without the barrier of needing an expensive VR headset, Moss: The Forgotten Relic does stand to reach a wider audience (there’s also a free Steam demo) although we worry it will lack a lot of the original games’ charm without the VR elements.

Polyarc’s decision makes sense though, considering the team had to cancel an unspecified ‘major project’ a couple of months ago and, after failing to secure funding, laid off a significant number of staff.

Release date: July 16

Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game

PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, and PC

Even if you don’t care for Netflix’s live action remake of Avatar: The Last Airbender (season two having recently dropped), fans of the franchise will be eating well for the rest of the year.

A new animated movie (officially) comes out in October but before that, a dedicated fighting game launches in July that brings characters from both The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra to duke it out, while replicating the animation and art style of the cartoons.

Its roster is only 12 characters but it’s pretty affordable at only £24.99 and it already has plans to add a further five fighters as DLC. In fact, anyone who pre-orders the game gets to cast their vote on who one of the DLC characters will be, from a list of fan favourites.

Release date: July 23

Splatoon Raiders

Nintendo Switch 2

Rather than Splatoon 4, Splatoon’s Switch 2 debut is a spin-off that eschews competitive multiplayer entirely and focuses on being more of a single-player experience.

Despite this shift, it seems to retain Splatoon’s excellent core shooting and traversal mechanics, as you explore the Spirhalite Islands in search of treasure, assisted by the idol trio Deep Cut from Splatoon 3.

Multiplayer isn’t completely absent, though, as up to four players will be able to play through the game in co-op. Plus, a new amiibo pack for the three members of Deep Cut in their Splatoon Raiders outfits will launch the exact same day as the game.

Release date: July 23

Halo: Campaign Evolved

PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PC

Easily the most important release of the month, Halo: Campaign Evolved isn’t just an attempt to appeal to the nostalgia of Xbox fans but a ploy to introduce Halo to a new audience and help revitalise the franchise.

Halo was once the Xbox’s key exclusive but after losing so much of its lustre over the years, it’s going multiplatform and debuting on PlayStation 5; an act that would have been unthinkable during the franchise’s prime.

Weirdly, this remake is omitting the original game’s multiplayer, despite it being one of the main reasons Halo became so popular in the first place, but it thankfully brings back local co-op and includes a few new story missions.

Presumably, this will lead to future Halo games on PlayStation 5, although Xbox’s weird pivot back to exclusives makes that less certain, especially when Xbox’s own logic for what is and isn’t an exclusive doesn’t make much sense.

Release date: July 28

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition

Nintendo Switch 2

Nintendo not only announced a new Xenoblade game during its June Direct but also Switch 2 upgrades for all three numbered Xenoblade Chronicles games, which not only bump up the performance but add brand new content to boot.

The upgrade for Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition is already out, with Xenoblade Chronicles 2’s upgrade scheduled to arrive right at the end of the month.

Aside from 4K resolution support and an improved frame rate of 60fps, the Switch 2 version adds a new battle mode where you can take direct control of your Blades, a new sidequest, and new costumes for Pyra and Mythra.

In case you’re wondering, the original game’s DLC expansion, Torna – The Golden Country, will benefit from the performance upgrade too and, so long as you already own it on Switch 1, is included with the Switch 2 upgrade pack, which costs £7.99.

Release date: July 30

The BBC made a change to its scheduled programming to honour the beloved actress following her death aged 86

BBC audiences have been left “heartbroken” as they honoured a legendary actress.

In an alteration to its scheduled lineup, the broadcaster opted to celebrate Dame Penelope Keith with a classic instalment of The Good Life on Monday, 29 June.

Dame Penelope, renowned for her role in the 1970s British sitcom, passed away aged 86, with her family issuing a statement.

They said she “died peacefully whilst living with cancer at her home in Surrey”.

While admirers grieved the To the Manor Born star and colleagues offered their respects, the BBC announced the Margo Leadbetter actress would be commemorated with the episode screening on BBC Two, reports the Mirror.

Taken from the third series of The Good Life, it depicted conflict erupting between the Goods and the Leadbetters, “proving there is nothing like a good fight over the fence to cement relationships”.

Jon Petrie, Director of BBC Comedy said: “All of us at BBC Comedy are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Dame Penelope Keith. She was one of the defining figures of British television comedy.

“Her iconic performance as Margo in The Good Life remains one of the nation’s most beloved sitcom roles and continues to delight audiences today.

“We send our heartfelt condolences to her family, friends and all of those who had the privilege of working with her.”

Watching the repeat episode, one person wrote on X: “Just watched #TheGoodLife on bbc as a tribute to Penelope Keith. Still very good!”

Another said: “Lovely to watch #thegoodlife. it brings back memories of when I was a kid. RIP Penelope Keith.”

A third wrote: “Genuinely had something in my eye as soon as the theme tune came on #TheGoodLife #DamePenelopeKeith Thank you BBC2.”

Someone else said: “I’m indulging in some pre-dinner #TheGoodLife on #BBCTwo in honour of #PenelopeKeith RIP.”

Paying their respects, one person said: “I am shocked and now, heartbroken. … Absolutely love this lady. I’ve watched #TheGoodLife so many times, over the years and it just becomes even more funny each time I watch it – seeing/hearing something that I’ve missed previously… I think another “binge-watch” of “The Good Life” is now due. In honour of the beloved #DamePenelopeKeith.”

Someone else wrote: “Pleasing to see BBC 2 scheduling an episode of The Good Life at 7 this evening, by way of tribute to the wonderfully talented Penelope Keith. Hopefully there will be more in the coming weeks. A Penelope Keith night on BBC 4?”

The statement from Dame Penelope’s family read: “We are deeply saddened to announce that Dame Penelope Keith died peacefully whilst living with cancer at her home in Surrey where she had lived for more than 50 years.

“The family is grateful for the care and support she received throughout her treatments, and ask that their privacy be respected at this time.”

The Good Life is available to watch on BBC iPlayer.

GERMANY 1-1 PARAGUAY (3-4 pens): Kai Havertz equalised after Julio Enciso had fired Paraguay in front before

Germany are OUT of the World Cup after a shock defeat by Paraguay on penalties in the last 32.

Arsenal’s Kai Havertz and Newcastle’s Nick Woltemade both sensationally missed in the shootout after the game finished 1-1 after extra time.

Paraguay defender Jose Canale was the hero after the South Americans had squandered two opportunities to win it.

It is the first time Germany have ever lost on penalties at the World Cup having previously won each of their four previous shootouts, scoring 17 out of 18 spot kicks in the process.

But their luck ran out after an insipid 120 minutes and they are now on their way home.

Paraguay fired a warning shot by winning a corner in the first minute of the match and it almost bore fruit. The ball fell to Junior Alonso at the back post but he couldn’t get a proper connection when trying to finish.

But Germany dominated possession from there on in, albeit without managing to fashion much in the way of clear goal scoring opportunities.

And their lack of ruthlessness was punished when Paraguay scored against the run of play in the closing stages of the first half.

The underdogs won a corner which Manuel Neuer punched clear. The ball was recycled to the right-hand side where Miguel Almiron played a reverse pass to Matias Galarza.

His cross was pinpoint on to the head of former Brighton and Ipswich star Julio Enciso who planted his header into the back of the net from 12 yards.

That doubtless led to some stern words at half-time from Germany boss Julien Nagelsmann. And Die Mannschaft came out with more intent after the break.

Liverpool midfielder Florian Wirtz delivered a delicious cross from deep and Arsenal hitman Havertz’s flick header nestled in the bottom corner to restore parity.

Havertz had the chance to double his tally in the 78th minute from the same provider. Wirtz whipped on to the edge of the six-yard box but the Gunners striker could only head straight at goalkeeper Orlando Gill.

Despite having 76% of the possession in the 90 minutes, Germany managed just three shots on target and the game went to extra time.

Newcastle striker Nick Woltemade, off the bench, had an effort towards goal which struck the elbow of Pargauayan defender Gustavo Gomez. But his arm was deemed to be in a natural position and Gomez was in close proximity to the strike.

Pressure looked to have finally told 12 minutes into the additional period when Jonathan Tah’s bullet header hit the back of the net from Nathaniel Brown’s corner.

But VAR intervened and, after watching replays on the screen, the referee adjudged Waldemar Anton had fouled goalkeeper Gill. There appeared to be minimal contact, but the goal was chalked off.

Anton had a golden chance to avoid penalties in the closing stages of extra time but could only divert his close-range header into the arms of Gill.

That meant it was spot kicks and Havertz saw his effort saved. Paraguay scored their first three before Woltemade’s miss, meaning they had two opportunities to win it.

But Antonio Sanabria dragged his penalty wide before former West Ham defender Fabian Balbuena saw his spot kick saved.

Tah then smashed his penalty over the crossbar as the shootout went into sudden death and Jose Canale scored the winner.

Paraguay move into the last 16 and will play the winner of France vs Sweden.

Temperatures have fallen from the record-breaking highs seen across the UK last week – but there are signs another heatwave could be building as July begins.

Some forecasts suggest temperatures could climb back up into the the mid-30Cs in England and Wales next week. While the Met Office has described the weather as “warmer-than-average”, there is still uncertainty about how hot conditions might get.

“Although a return to heatwave conditions is looking increasingly likely for some areas, the likelihood of such extreme high temperatures or high levels of humidity as last week is currently low”, deputy chief forecaster Tony Wisson said.

A new provisional UK heat record for June of 37.7C (99.9F) was set in Lingwood, Norfolk, on Friday.

This beat the previous June record of 35.6C recorded in 1957 and equalled in 1976.

National temperature records also fell in at least eight European countries in the last week, with red extreme heat warnings remaining in force across eastern Europe.

Under the proposals, Darlington would have 41 councillors, representing 18 wards, comprising six three-member wards, 11 two-member wards, and one single-member ward.

That is a reduction from the current 50 councillors.

The boundaries of all but one of the council’s wards would change, according to the independent Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE). 

It is reviewing the borough’s electoral arrangements to ensure each councillor represents a similar number of voters and that the council can operate effectively.

Among the proposed changes are the creation of a College and Blackwell ward, which would include Darlington town centre, and the expansion of Harrowgate Hill ward to incorporate new housing developments to the north of the town.

The consultation, which opened in April, closes on July 6.

Bev Smith, chair of the commission, said: “Darlington is a unique place and we want residents to help us get these boundaries right. We have drawn up proposals for new wards and want to make sure they truly reflect local communities – but we need to hear from the people who know those communities best.

“Whether you agree with our proposals or think something should change, please let us know. Every response helps us make better decisions. Getting involved is straightforward – visit our website, send us an email or write to us. We would love to hear from you.”

People can view the full proposals, including the suggested ward names and boundaries, and submit comments via the commission’s website.

The dramatic waterfall – which plunges 21 metres (70ft) into a gorge on the River Tees – has topped a new ranking of the country’s most stunning waterfall walks, compiled by outdoor experts at GO Outdoors.

The list placed High Force, in the heart of Upper Teesdale, ahead of 14 other waterfalls across Britain, including Falls of Glomach in the Scottish Highlands and Pistyll Rhaeadr in Wales, which is listed as one of the Seven Wonders of Wales.

Set within the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a UNESCO Global Geopark, High Force sits on the famous Whin Sill — a layer of ancient dolerite rock formed from molten lava more than 295 million years ago.

What makes the walk so special?

The GO Outdoors ranking grades the High Force route as moderate, covering 11.05 km with an estimated walking time of around three hours and 20 minutes.

The terrain takes in open countryside, woodland and rocky paths alongside the River Tees.

A well-maintained path through woodland leads visitors to the base of the falls, where viewing platforms offer safe and striking views of the cascade and the surrounding scenery.

Natalie Wolfenden, author and outdoor enthusiast at GO Outdoors, said: “Waterfalls offer beautiful scenery and an escape into nature, making them a great choice for a summer walk.

“Whether you’re looking for a short woodland stroll or a more challenging hike, there are plenty of impressive waterfalls to discover across the UK.”

She added that walkers should plan ahead, wear sturdy footwear, carry plenty of water and pack waterproof clothing, as conditions can change quickly even in summer.

Someone who was equally a fan recently visited the area and wrote in a review on Tripadvisor: “The place is breathtaking. We went on a little tour and loved every minute of it. You can get fairly close and the view is spectacular.”

Planning your visit

High Force is located on the B6277 at Forest-in-Teesdale, around four-and-a-half miles north-west of Middleton-in-Teesdale.

The nearest major road is the A66.

The site is open daily during the summer season from 10 am to 4 pm.

Admission costs £3.95 for adults and £2.45 for children aged four to 15, with under-fours going free.

A family saver ticket for two adults and two children costs £10 online or £12 on the day.

Parking is available on site, with charges of £4 for four hours and £6 for six hours.

Dogs are welcome on leads.

The top 10 UK waterfall walks, according to GO Outdoors:

1. High Force, County Durham
2. Falls of Glomach, Ross-shire, Scotland
3. Pistyll Rhaeadr, Powys, Wales
4. Steall Falls, Glen Nevis, Scotland
5. Hardraw Force, Yorkshire Dales
6. Aira Force, Lake District
7. Ingleton Waterfall Trail, Yorkshire Dales
8. Waterfall Country, Brecon Beacons
9. Becky Falls, Dartmoor
10. St Nectan’s Glen, Cornwall

Whether you’re drinking at home or in the pub, many people will be enjoying a few beers, especially in the warmer weather that summer brings.

Everyone will have their favourites, but can you improve the taste of any beer you’re drinking?

Various food and drinks experts have suggested you can, if you do one thing.

How can you make your beer taste better?

Beer scientists have shared that salty, savoury and crunchy tastes can help elevate the taste of a beer.

Therefore, eating snacks like nuts, crisps or pork scratchings when drinking can see some benefit to the taste.

Chris Reid, the Head Brewer at Damm UK, producer of Estrella Damm lager, shared: “Salt reduces the bitterness in beer, making it taste smoother and bringing out more of its natural malty sweetness.

“It also makes your mouth water, which helps carry the flavour to your taste buds more effectively.

“Crunchy foods wake up the nerves in your mouth and face, making your senses feel sharper so every sip tastes more vivid and enjoyable.

“Meanwhile, the fat and starch in food coat your tongue between sips.

“This clears away any leftover bitterness, so your palate resets and the next sip tastes fresh and clean again.”

The broadcaster and brewer Jaega Wise, who is a spokesperson for the Mr Porky brand, also concurred with this, saying: “A lot of it comes down to contrast.

“Beer can bring bitterness, carbonation and that uncanny ability to quench one’s thirst, while pork scratchings are salty, rich and intensely crunchy.

“Put them together and each one lifts the other making both the beer and scratchings extra moreish!”

Finally, Jorge Thomas, founder of Swaledale Butchers, said: “One of the best things you can have with a pint is freshly cooked pork scratchings.

“There’s a reason they’ve been a pub staple for years.

“The salt lifts the flavour of the beer, whilst the fat and crunch make the next sip even more enjoyable.

Recommended reading:

“It’s not that different to salted nuts, just much more interesting.

“People sometimes dismiss pork scratchings as old-fashioned pub food, but there’s a good reason they work.

“Salt, fat, crunch and beer have always been a very happy combination.

“Sometimes the old combinations survive because they work.”

Former England captain David Beckham captured the attention of tennis fans as he attended the first day of Wimbledon with his mother on Monday

Aryna Sabalenka wasted no time in acknowledging David Beckham after progressing to the second round of Wimbledon. Following her 6-2 6-3 victory over Serbian teenager Teodora Kostovic on Centre Court, she made a point of recognising that Sir David was among the spectators in the Royal Box.

Beckham was in the crowd, while his son Romeo watched from another section of Centre Court, as the former footballer opted to bring his mum to Wimbledon’s opening day. Both applauded as the three-time semi-finalist swept aside her youthful opponent.

Sabalenka expressed her gratitude to the crowd for their support, before pausing and turning towards Beckham. She said: “Sir David, thank you for being here.”

Sabalenka also offered generous praise for her opponent, who is widely regarded as a future star of the sport. The world No.1 said: “She brought a really good fight. She stepped in a little more in the second set.

“She pushed me a bit more. I’m happy I was able to close it in straight sets. I totally get it. Playing for the first time on Centre Court, it’s a lot of pressure. But I’m pretty sure she’ll deal with that much better next time.

“I think we all get nervous. It’s just part of our lives. You kind of block that part of your brain and kind of try to focus on yourself. I think with experience I learned how to deal with nerves and expectations a bit better.

“I have to say for the first match I felt pretty good. I’ll rate myself… let’s say 8 out of 10?”

Beckham shared the Royal Box with a host of well-known faces, including Mary Berry, Ronan Keating and Katherine Jenkins, the latter of whom the footballer previously spoke about in a leaked email. The Welsh singer was at the centre of controversial comments made by Beckham, which surfaced nine years ago.

Following Jenkins being awarded an OBE in the 2014 New Year’s Honours for her contributions to music and charitable work, while Beckham himself was passed over for a Knighthood, the former England captain vented his frustration in a leaked email to his advisor.

“Katherine Jenkins OBE for what?” the email read. “Singing at the rugby and going to see the troops plus taking coke. F***ing joke.”

In 2018, Jenkins admitted feeling hurt by Beckham’s comments and said the former Manchester United star had not reached out to apologise.
