It’s that time of year when Geoff Keighley gets on his stage to announce 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Game Awards nominees for 2022. This year's nominees for Game of the Year include some expected titles as well as a few surprises that probably don’t stand much of a chance but are nice to see mentioned anyway.
As chosen by over 100 influential video games outlets from around t🍒he world, here are your nominees for The Game Awards Game of the Year 2022:
- A Plague Tale Requiem
- Elden Ring
- God of War: Ragnarok
- Horizon Forbidden West
- Stray
- Xenoblade Chronicles 3
By far the two standouts from this list are 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Elden Ring and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:God of War: Ragnarok, which are both the highest-rated games of 2022 thus far (sorry, Sonic Frontiers). Elden Ring 168澳洲幸运𒊎5开奖网:achieved perfect scores from multiple🌺 outlets when it was released earlier this year, and although God of War: Ragnarok’s scores 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:aren’t quite as impressive, it’s still widely considered one of the best games of 2022. It’ll be interesting to see how these two behemoths throw down leading up to🐠 The Game Awards ceremony in December.
168澳洲幸运5开奖网:A Plague Tale: Requiem is a surprise entry for us here at The Gamer. It's 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:certainly a compelling sequel to one of most interesting narrative games in recent memory, but it featured gameplay mechanics that never s♔eem to be fully utilizꦡed and is hampered by a final act that is hopelessly morose.
168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Xenoblade Chronicles 3, meanwhile, gave 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:an impressive showing over the summer, although it seems unlikely to stand up to the might of Elden Ring. Ditto 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Horizon Forbidden West, which like its predecessor, decided to release at exactly the wrong time, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:and Stray, which although adorable, is a bit of a one-tric☂𝓰k kitty.
Elden Ring made it into the nominees for quite a few categories, including Best Game Direction, Best Art Direction, Best Score & Music, Best Audio Design, and Best Narrative. We might be weeks away from an Elden Ring sweep. The Game Awards host its awards ceremony at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:December 8.
