You can get NBA 2K23 and more with PS Plus this June
Donovan Mitchell in NBA 2K23.

The three games that make up PlayStation Plus Essential's June lineup have been revealed. There are any major console exclusives or no releases included; instead, there's NBA 2K23, a Jurassic Park tie-in title, and an indie game inspired by classic samurai films.

NBA 2K23 needs little introduction, as it's the latest entry in 2K's long-running, annualized basketball video game series. This latest entry stands out from the ones that came before by deepening the controls an AI further, as well as adding a Jordan Challenge mode that chronicles Michael Jordan's career. Beware of some pretty intrusive microtransactions, though. 
Also available this month is Jurassic World Evolution 2, a theme park management game that swaps out roller coasters and other festivities for dinosaur-related attractions. The management genre is a surprisingly great fit for the Jurassic Park IP, and this game even provides a bit of story context to fill in the gap between Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and Jurassic World Dominion.
Finally, there's Trek to Yomi, a very cinematic indie game. It's stylized like a classic black-and-white samurai action movie, which makes sense as it's telling a revenge story about a pupil trying to avenge their dying master. If you didn't play this game through Game Pass, it's now available on a Sony subscription service as well.
This certainly isn't the most exciting game lineup, but it still provides a wide variety of gaming experiences. NBA 2K23, Jurassic World Evolution 2, and Trek to Yomi will be available through PlayStation Plus from June 6 until July 3. Make sure you download May's PS Plus games before then too.

Lego 2K Drive melds the best parts of kart racers and Forza Horizon
A custom car built drives around Lego 2K Drive.

Forza Horizon 4's excellent 2019 Lego expansion worked so well that it seemed obvious that an open-world Lego racing game should become its own thing. Thankfully, we didn't have to wait too long to see that become a reality. Visual Concepts and 2K Games have announced a multi-title partnership with The Lego Group that begins with the open-world racer Lego 2K Drive, which launches on May 19.
I was recently flown out to 2K's Novato headquarters to go hands-on with Lego 2K Drive ahead of its announcement and came away impressed. The Lego and open-world racer combination still works quite well, harkening back to some great-playing racing games with aesthetics and a car customization system that gets as much mileage out of the Lego association as possible. Whether you're a fan of this new wave of open-world racing games or want to build and then race the weirdest Lego creations possible, you'll be thoroughly entertained by Lego 2K Drive. 

Entering a Lego world
My hands-on time with Lego 2K Drive encompassed the game's opening hours. The central premise is that players are trying to qualify for the Sky Cup Gran Prix, a race in the sky that only attracts the best drivers from this Lego world. To qualify, one must win four Grand Brick Arena circuits in each of this game's biomes. But first, I had to learn how to drive. After designing my Lego character, I was let loose in Turbo Acres. In this smaller open-world area, it's manageable to learn the basics from an experienced Lego driver named Clutch Racington.

5 features AEW: Fight Forever needs to set itself apart from WWE 2K23
Multiple wrestlers posing for cover of AEW: Fight Forever.

The upcoming release of AEW: Fight Forever marks the first major professional wrestling video game outside of the WWE 2K series in a long time. But just as the two promotions have major differences, so, too, will the games. The WWE 2K series was in rough shape following the infamous release of 2K20, but after taking a year off, it came back swinging with the solid WWE 2K22.

Still, it's not perfect, leaving a major opportunity for AEW: Fight Forever to steal the show. This upcoming release is being created by veteran developer Yuke's (the studio behind genre classics like WWE SmackDown! Here Comes the Pain) meaning the team has plenty of experience making wrestling games. Not only that, but the project is being led by Hideyuki "Geta" Iwashita, the director behind Nintendo 64's iconic WWF No Mercy.
