Though the people had their own way of dealing with the situation, the security was meticulous about investigating the situation. Hence, it was propagated by Geoff Keighley, “The individual who interrupted our Game of the Year moment has been arrested.” Hereby, the world got to know that the authorities investigated the bizarre incident.
Hence, one has to leave it to the future before speculating on anything. All in all, the event was a magnificent one as Elden Ring got the prestigious Game of the Year Award. Whereas God of War: Ragnarok bagged abundant awards to reciprocate the heritage of the PlayStation exclusive.
