Il The Game Awards 2024 è l’evento conclusivo di questo 2024 piuttosto travagliato e ricco di polemiche, per un motivo o l’altro. Quest’anno ci saranno anche alcune piccole novità. Tra i giochi candidabili in tutte le categorie ci sono anche espansioni e DLC, inoltre la giuria dovrà tenere conto anche del rapporto qualità/prezzo dei giochi pubblicati. Ed ecco che subito saltano fuori due sorprese: l’espansione di Elden Ring e Balatro!
L’evento si terrà nella notte tra il 12 e il 13 dicembre 2024 a partire dalle ore 2:00 italiane, con la consueta diretta streaming, la decima edizione in presenza più una extra fatta online durante il covid. Qui di seguito troverete tutte le categorie e i giochi o protagonisti nominati:
