The Game Awards 2024: All Winners & Awards

So that was the Game Awards 2024. As usual, the event was accompanied by a veritable flood of announcements and surprises, so you can look forward to The Witcher 4, Okami 2 and Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, but of course it was also about honoring the games of the past year.

In what is probably the most important category, the Game of the Year category, extremely different titles and even an expansion competed against each other this year: Astro Bot, Balatro, Black Myth: Wukong, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Metaphor: ReFantazio and Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. In the end, the PS5 exclusive title AstroBot won, taking home three trophies. But the evening was also worthwhile for Balatro, with a total of three awards.
