Every Winner From The Game Awards

The Game Awards 2020, one of the biggest nights in the gaming industry, has finally concluded. Winners were named in more than 30 categories, while more than a dozen developers shared sneak peeks at upcoming game releases and updates. Some of the night's highlights included a trailer for the new Dragon Age game, a look at Fall Guys Season 3, and a sneak peek at the brand new map in Among Us. Plus, viewers got to see the first look at some awesome upcoming titles, such as Evil West and It Takes Two. Xbox also finally revealed the project that its newest studio, The Initiative, has been working on: Perfect Dark.

This year's Game Awards was a bit different from previous years. Due to COVID-19 safety measures, the show was livestreamed from three different studios in London, Tokyo, and Los Angeles, and all of the nominees attended via video call. Still, it turned out to be quite the epic evening.

After a very successful night for Naughty Dog, The Last of Us Part 2 received one final accolade: the Game of the Year award. The PlayStation 4 exclusive, which was released back in June, went up against Hades, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, The Ghost of Tsushima, Doom Eternal, and Final Fantasy 7 Remake for the coveted title.

Back when it was first released, TLOU 2 was met with controversy and mixed reviews as some players believed that the game included "LGBTQ propoganda." Still, its controversies are just about its only measurable flaw, since TLOU 2 otherwise received rave reviews regarding its touching story and state-of-the-art graphics. Plus, Naughty Dog took TLOU 2's finale in a completely different direction than what fans had expected, which made it a huge conversation topic within the gaming industry and among players. TLOU 2 pushed the boundaries of the action/adventure genre, and that definitely played a role in its Game of the Year win.
