Seperti biasa, setiap di akhir tahun para gamer berkumpul untuk mengadakan suatu tradisi yang sudah lama diselenggarakan. Tradisi tersebut yang tak lain adalah The Game Awards yang merupakan ajang penghargaan untuk seluruh game yang berhak memenangkan nominasi game terbaik di bidangnya. Dengan acara yang sebentar lagi akan dimulai yakni tanggal 9 Desember mendatang, saat ini nominasi seluruh game sudah diumumkan secara resmi.
Sebagai info, nominasi ini nantinya akan dipilih berdasarkan voting. Dimana suara yang diambil 90% berasal dari para juri dan sisa 10% nya dapat diambil secara umum. Untuk bagian yang 10%, voting akan diadakan melalui sejumlah media sosial seperti Twitter, Facebook dan BiliBili dengan batas waktu hingga 8 Desember. Selain itu, terdapat juga beberapa nominasi khusus seperti aksesibilitas dan game olahraga dimana voting akan diselenggarakan melalui platform Discord atau melalui DM Twitter. Game yang masuk nominasi merupakan kumpulan game yang telah rilis secara umum sebelum 19 November, sehingga lewat dari tanggal tersebut tidak akan masuk ke dalam nominasi tahun ini.
Seperti biasa, sang kreator The Game Awards yaitu Geoff Keighley akan kembali mengisi sebagai pembawa acara. Event ini rencananya akan berlangsung di Los Angeles, Amerika Serikat, tepatnya di Microsoft Theatre. Tak hanya sebagai ajang penghargaan, event ini juga akan memberikan beberapa kejutan lainnya berupa pengumuman baru hingga pameran game dari para developer.
