A Skiing game toward the end of summer might seem out of place, but heat waves are happening everywhere and I can’t think of anything cooler videogame-wise than checking out a cool skiing videogame. Grand Mountain Adventures ($19.99 regular price https://store.steampowered.com/app/1247360/Grand_Mountain_Adventure_Wonderlands/) goes on sale fairly frequently at Steam, so wishlist this downhill badboy and snag it at the next big sale.
Grand Mountain Adventures: Wonderland plays great on the Steam Deck, so if you’ve been craving a modern fun arcade-like downhill skiing experience, this is your jam.
It’s that time of the week again to check for noteworthy game releases for PC/Steam, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch via Metacritic. We also discuss these games live on the High Noon with Hollywood Polo stream at noon Tuesdays PST (GMT-8) here: https://www.twitch.tv/playgamesmoredotcom including commentary from other PGM members, wishlist interest and more.
