2023 Game Awards Nominees Have Been Announced

The 2023 Game Awards are scheduled for December 7th but today the nominees have been announced with many categories for Baldurs Gate 3 to win

Game Awards 2023

The Game Awards nominees have been officially announced allowing us to vote for the best titles of the year which is a tough choice for some. Despite many very poor releases back at the start of the year, the end of the year has seen some fairly good ones including Baldurs Gate 3 which won seven awards at the Golden Joystick Awards. Looking through the list of categories Baldurs Gate is once again nominated for many including Game of The Year, Best Game Direction, Best Narrative and several more. The recently released Alan Wake 2 has also been nominated for a fair selection as well. Personally, I haven’t played many games this year so I don’t have much of an opinion, however, I did play Forza Motorsport enough to say that it doesn’t deserve any of the awards it has been nominated for. The same goes for Cities Skylines II despite how much I enjoy it, it’s unfinished and very buggy.
