This is the Complete List of Nominations for The Game Awards 2021
The annual award event entitled The Game Awards 2021 is coming soon. The Game Awards itself is known as one of the awards that is more than just an award ceremony in the game world and is also considered the most high-profile. The event will be held on December 7, 2021. The nominations for the best game of 2021 for each award category have been announced.
In 2021, the fourth annual Game Awards puts more spotlight on the three major console platforms, namely Microsoft’s Xbox One, Sony PS4, and Nintendo Switch. In addition to games from the three consoles, other highlights are given to games that have the triple-A genre and indie games as well.
This annual awards ceremony is famous because it also includes announcements of new games and trailers for major game projects in addition to the awards ceremony. An example this year is the rumors surrounding the announcement of a new Death Stranding trailer.
In 2021, there were several changes in The Game Awards event as determined. An example of the change is the addition of two new categories that are considered important to be included in the award. The two categories in question are mobile games, and live games or also known as games as a service, besides that there are several PPSSPP games that are included in the nominations.
There is a special reason that deserves thumbs up regarding the addition of a category titled live games. Based on the narrative of The Game Awards, this category exists because there are games that need to be awarded which are considered games that are sustainable services and are not games that are only released once.
