The big and undisputed winner, in this year's Game of the Year and several other prestigious awards, is the title of action and survival The Last of Us Part 2 - a game that received a huge hug from critics when launched last June but actually encountered a lot of fire from the players themselves Significant compared to the first episode. Also the fact that this game is exclusive to the PlayStation consoles, at a time when most of the big titles are showing a willingness to launch for as much as possible Gamers On as many platforms as possible, it did not really contribute to calming the winds - with various statements that the organizers and Sony deliberately collaborated to emphasize the superiority of the platform from the company.
The Last of Us Part II defeated Doom Eternal, Ghost of Tsushima, the remake of Final Fantasy 7, the hit of Nintendo Wii Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Hades as the Indie Industry Angle in the Race for Game of the Year Award - and picked up six more awards including Best Director, Best Plot and Best Action-Adventure Game of the Year.
The great Roguelite title Hades won the indie game of the year and action game of the year, the huge indie hit Among Us won the title of best mobile game of all and the best multiplayer game, No Man's Sky won (rightly) the title of gradually improving game over a long period of time, Ghost of Tsushima received one and only award for the most successful artistic direction (if you do not also consider choosing an audience favorite as a bonus), Final Fantasy 7 Remake received the soundtrack award and the best role-playing award, Half-Life: Alyx easily picked up The best virtual reality game episode ever Microsoft products The innovative Flight Simulator has been determined to be the best simulation / strategy game (in a category that clearly shows how these genres have been thrown out of the spotlight).
