August is both a calm before the storm, and busy in terms of video game releases. The beginning of the month is somewhat quiet, though the end of the month ramps up with major titles like Control and Astral Chain. Meanwhile, horror fans have a few notable entries to look forward to with Blair Witch and The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan towards the end of the month.
