This beautiful indie game just beat AAAs to win Best Artistic Achievement at the BAFTAs

The 2025 BAFTA Game Awards winners have been announced. It will come as little surprise that Astro Bot from Sony's Team Asobi had a great night. It scooped five awards, including Best Game and Best Animation and Best Game Design. But many people are intrigued by the success of a lesser-known title.

Nomada Studio's graceful side-scrolling platformer Neva won the Best Artistic Achievement award, seeing off Astro Bot, Black Myth Wukong, Still Wakes the Deep and Senua's Saga: Hellblade II. It was a well-deserved accolade for one of the most beautiful indie games we've seen (also see our pick of the best game consoles).
