(PressFire.no): Under nattens Game Awards-utdeling, som er bransjens klapp på egne skuldre, var det FromSoftwares «Elden Ring» som vant prisen for årets spill.
– Det er kanskje ikke riktig tid å si dette på, men jeg har bestemt meg for å lage flere spill, kunne regissør Hidetaka Miyasaki si fra scenen.
– For «Elden Ring» så har vi fortsatt flere ting planlagt, så å vinne dette oppmuntrer oss veldig.
«Elden Ring» vant altså årets spill, men spillet rasket også med seg prisene for beste rollespill, beste regi og beste art direction.
«God of War Ragnarök» hentet derimot hjem mest sølvtøy av alle gjennom seks seiere i kategoriene for beste action-eventyrspill, beste historie, beste audio-design, beste skuespillerprestasjon (Christopher Judge leverte en NI minutter lang takketale), beste musikk (av Bear McCreary) og beste innovasjoner i tilrettelegging.
«Final Fantasy 14» og «Stray» dro også med seg et par priser hver.
