Sorry Returnal, but as the only game on this list not featured in the Game of the Year category you might be at a statistical disadvantage. (Image credit: Bethesda) Best Game Directionīest Game Direction is a tough one to quantify next to Game of the Year as the two categories can often feel pretty similar – and that's why most years the winner is the same for both awards. A lot of this list also ticks those boxes so this year it's anyone's game. It's often a difficult category to predict before the night begins, though as the prizes start rolling in it can quickly become clear which game is the favorite.īased on previous winners we suspect it'll be a single-player Action/Adventure game with elements of open-world exploration (with six of the seven past winners falling into this category).

Here's the list of the nominees for (most) award categories at this year's Game Awards. We'll also get to see the next Sonic game too, according to Keighley.
