As the end of another year approaches, so too does the next The Game Awards show — a celebration of the most acclaimed games of the year, as well as a place where game developers can premiere and show off their upcoming projects. The event is always held in December, just before Christmas and the turn of the New Year; 2025's show is scheduled for December 11, and will be streamed live on Twitch, YouTube, and other platforms.
At the heart of The Game Awards is, well, its awards — titles and trophies bestowed upon the best games of the year and their developers, as determined by a curated voting jury as well as public voting. There are close to 30 categories each year, with the most prestigious being the coveted Game of the Year award. And now that the show is under a month away, host Geoff Keighley has revealed all the nominees for each and every category.
