The Game Awards honors the best games in a variety of categories. Not only that, we get a lot of sneak peaks, news, and trailers about upcoming games, and this awards show also premieres new unannounced projects. As far as nominees are concerned, they will be announced a bit later, close to the awards themselves, as more qualified and deserving titles are yet to be released.
Last year, it was Elden Ring that became the Best Game of 2022. But the game that took all the spotlight was God of War: Ragnarok, which won six awards out of eleven nominations. Not only that, the 2022 edition of this award introduced a new category, “Best Adaptation.” Last year, Death Stranding 2 and Hades 2 were also announced. Because of these major excitements, last year’s edition got 103 million livestreams.
