The RPG still lacks the two best categories
If we refer to the number of appointments here, it is Clear obscure: Expedition 33 Who is the big darling since its name is cited in 5 categories (6 if you count the studio itself), more than any other game. However, if it is present in prestigious categories, it does not appear anywhere in the “PC game of the year”, nor the “console game of the year”. But this is because it still lacks the last category, “Ultimate Game of the Year”, whose list of the nominees will be announced on November 3.
In addition to this, PlayStation productions are acclaimed. Ghost of Yoteibarely out, is appointed 4 times, while Death Stranding 2 is just as much. Hollow Knight Silksong is obviously present a few times here, just like Battlefield 6when he has not yet been released (look for logic).
