Quella andata in onda l’8 dicembre a partire dalle ore 1:30 italiane è stata una notte dei The Game Awards di sicuro non troppo generosa di chissà quali bombe sotto forma di annunci e novità, ma estremamente convincente, fortunatamente, sotto il profilo delle statuine distribuite ai giochi a cui sono stati riconosciuti meriti ed indiscutibili qualità da giuria e pubblico vortante.
Come ampiamente ipotizzato, a portarsi il premio più ambito, è stato Baldur’s Gate 3, investito del titolo di miglior gioco del 2023. Gloria anche per Alan Wake 2, che dal canto suo si è distinto per essersi assicurato diverse statuette, tra cui quella della miglior game direction.
Se globalmente Nintendo si è difesa piuttosto bene, raccogliendo il consenso della giuria con i vari Pikmin 4, acquistabile a questo link, e Super Mario Bros. Wonder, recuperabile al volo qui, ha lievemente deluso le aspettative la performance di The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, anche questo ovviamente disponibile sullo shop online di GameStop. Nonostante le tante candidature, difatti, la produzione della Grande N si è dovuta accontentare del riconoscimento di miglior action adventure.
