On 8 December, the most successful games of the year competed with each other at The Game Awards. The games, which were nominated in multiple categories, received their awards with the choices of players and editors. Let's look at all the awards in detail, from the game of the year to the best game design, from the best music to the best performance.
Alan Wake II, one of the biggest surprises of this year, received very positive reviews. Alan Wake managed to blend the survival genre with the detective concept quite well. It also had a very interesting story. It is not possible not to get an award when all these are gathered. Here are all the awards Alan Wake 2 received:
Best Game Management
Best Art Design
Best Screenplay
It has been exactly 3 years since the release of Cyberpunk 2077. CD Projekt Red, which had a very troubled release period, did not stop developing its games. The developer team, which managed to put the game on track with the updates that came in time, managed to reconnect the players with the Phantom Liberty additional package. Of course, this effort earned Cyberpunk the 'Best Continued Game' award.
This year, we encountered a variety of beautiful games as gamers. Among these productions, there was one title that continued to be talked about for months. Baldur's Gate 3, which seamlessly blends isometric camera perspective and role-playing, can be described as a game that truly swept the awards. Here are all the awards won by Baldurs Gate 3, which editors and players chose as the game of the year:
Game of the Year
Best RPG
Best Multiplayer Game
Voice of the Players
Best Community Support
Best Performance - Neil Newbon
Starfield and Spider-Man 2, which have been expected for many years, were a big disappointment. Starfield, which was not even nominated in the games of the year category, left the award night empty-handed. Likewise, Spider-Man 2, which was highly anticipated, could not win any award despite being nominated in 7 different categories.
