2022’s titans keep taking home trophies
The curtain has fallen on the 2023DICE Awards. And if you were paying attention to all the end-of-year awards as they’ve rolled out, the outcome may not be too surprising.
The awards, hosted by the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences, had its membership base of over 30,000 industry members vote on the various categories.Elden Ringwalked away with five of them, whileGod of War Ragnaroksnatched seven.
It wasn’t just their night, though. Other hits from 2022, includingTunicandVampire Survivors, got some recognition. And Double Fine Productions’ Tim Schafer was recognized for his contributions to the industry with the Hall of Fame award. If you want to learn more about that, I can’t recommend the recently releasedPsychOdysseydocumentary about the making ofPsychonauts 2enough.
Still, it looks likeElden RingandRagnarokremain the two big titans of 2022, warring it out for the annual awards. We still have the annual Game Developers Choice Awards ahead of us, as part of GDC, to see if some other games can bring home some hardware.
