After the speculation, it's time to announce the nominees for the big Game Awards 2021 ceremony. Beautiful people will be invited to the ceremony and the votes to determine the best games of the year are now open.
Now, it's time to discover the titles that may walk away with one or more prizes next month.
Many participants, but few elected
If the teasing concerning the announcements that will be made during the Game Awards has not yet started, we now know the nominees who will compete on the night of December 9 to 10, 2021. No less than 103 games, personalities and events have been broken down across the categories set out by Geoff Keighley this Tuesday.
Of course, Internet users can vote without delay by connecting to the Game Awards site and then browsing the famous categories. More than 100 media and influencers selected the nominees for this eighth edition. It is also important to know that the votes will be perceived in the following way: the votes of the public only weigh for 10% against 90% for the jury. Thus, a game acclaimed on social networks is not necessarily the one that will win the trophy.
Here are the games of the year!
Thus, the most watched category will undoubtedly be Game of the Year. But let's discover without delay all the nominees who will participate in this fabulous evening.
