    It’s that time- the 2024 Game Awards are upon us!

    While we’re very excited to see what trailers and titles are announced during today’s ceremony, we DO want to take a minute to acknowledge SAG-AFTRA, who are currently still on strike against various video game companies and producers.

    That said, we’ll do our best to update with winners and all the news from today’s ceremony.

    The first video up was for Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, coming in the summer of 2024.

    First award of the night was for BEST FIGHTING GAME, which goes to Tekken 8!

    BEST VR/AR GAME goes to “Batman: Arkham Shadow.”

    “Dave the Diver In the Jungle” looks pretty adorable, not gonna lie. Coming late 2025.

    “Thick as Thieves” got a cute little character intro video, showcasing a Victorian-set thieves trying to one up each other title.

    BEST ESPORTS GAME goes to “League of Legends.”

    BEST ESPORTS ATHELE goes to Faker.

    BEST ESPORTS TEAM goes to T1.
