Η ώρα έφτασε για τα The Game Awards 2022, τα οποία μεταδόθηκαν ζωντανά από τη φαντασμαγορική σκηνή του Microsoft Theater! Συγκεκριμένα, η πιο γνωστή τελετή απονομής βραβείων στο χώρο του gaming πραγματοποιήθηκε επιτυχώς από το Λος Άντζελες, και όπως συνηθίζεται να τα λέμε, τα “gaming Όσκαρς” έχουν πλέον κατόχους.
Ο μεγάλος νικητής της βραδιάς ήταν το Elden Ring. Το open-world RPG της FromSoftware που απέσπασε διθυραμβικές κριτικές και λατρεύτηκε από την κοινότητα, ξεχώρισε ως το Game of the Year 2022. Παράλληλα, ο ιδιοφυής director του, ο Hidetaka Miyazaki, έλαβε το βραβείο για το ‘Best Game Direction’, ενώ το Elden Ring βραβεύτηκε και για το Art Direction του, αλλά και ως το καλύτερο RPG της χρονιάς, αποσπώντας συνολικά τέσσερα (4) βραβεία. Από άποψη καθαρών αριθμών, η πρωτιά ανήκει στο God of War Ragnarök, το οποίο συνολικά έλαβε τα εξής έξι (6) βραβεία: Best Narrative, Best Score and Music, Best Audio Design, Best Performance, Best Action/Adventure, Innovation in Accessibility.
Παρακάτω θα βρείτε τη λίστα με όλους τους νικητές. Σε κάθε κατηγορία, ο νικητής είναι σημειωμένος με bold γραφή.
