Five Top Upcoming Adventure Games – August 2025

Trailer compilation of this month's most anticipated new releases

Summer stays hot with another sizzling wave of promising new adventures! First up in August is the VR reimagining of a charming 2018 time-manipulation puzzler and a seasonally appropriate trip to the boardwark in Crashable Studios' highly anticipated comedic mystery starring a man with Down syndrome. For those who prefer their mysteries tinged with horror instead of humour, there are sequels in both the Deep Sleep and Vlad Circus series to look forward to. And we get to find out what the world would look like if uniquely broken down into its component particles – with all the challenges that entails. Still not enough? That's okay, because there's so much more, from manning a haunted lighthouse to exploring an island of cats; from reuniting dimensionally separated twins to a trip to Venice from the creator of Abscission, just to name a few. Plenty of fun even out of the sun!
