Ανακοινώθηκαν οι τελικές υποψηφιότητες για τα Golden Joystick Awards 2025, τα οποία θα λάβουν χώρα και πάλι στο Λονδίνο. Η εταιρία πίσω από τα βραβεία ανακοίνωσε τώρα όλα τα παιχνίδια που διεκδικούν το πολυπόθητο “Ultimate Game of the Year” βραβείο, δηλαδή το “GOTY”.
Στις αρχές του Οκτωβρίου είχαν ανακοινωθεί οι περισσότερες κατηγορίες, με τους fans να έχουν τη δυνατότητα να ψηφίζουν το αγαπημένο τους μέχρι τις 31 του μήνα. Τώρα, άνοιξε και η κατηγορία Ultimate Game of the Year, το πιο μεγάλο έπαθλο των βραβείων, ενώ ανακοινώθηκαν και οι κατηγορίες Streamers’ Choice, Breakthrough και Critics’ Choice.
Το απόλυτο βραβείο, λοιπόν, διεκδικούν παιχνίδια όπως το Death Stranding 2 του PlayStation 5, το Peak, το Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, το Split Fiction που είδαμε στις αρχές της χρονιάς, το Ghost of Yotei, το Blue Prince, το Hollow Knight: Silksong, το παιχνίδι του Indiana Jones κ.ά.
