It feels like it gets earlier every year. The decorations are up. The kids are abuzz with excitement. There's magic in the air and—oh, who's that? There's a very recognisable and jolly silhouette on the horizon. It's Resident Evil 8's Lady Dimitrescu, whose actor Maggie Robertson will be your glamorous host for the 43rd annual Golden Joystick Awards.
The big day is this Thursday, November 20 at 8am PST / 11am EST / 4pm GMT / 5pm CEST, when the show will reveal its 26 winners in a gala ceremony going out across YouTube, Twitch, Steam, Facebook, TikTok and X as well as Future Games Show, GamesRadar, PC Gamer, WhatCulture Gaming, Ginx TV, Bilibili and Niconico. In other words, it's everywhere. You could probably have it telegrammed to you live if you insisted on it.
