The Game Awards 2019: le nomination

Death Stranding di Kojima Productions, Control di Remedy e Sekiro di From Software: i giochi con più candidature ai Game Awards 2019

Geoff Keighley ha pubblicato su YouTube un video con tutte le nomination per i Game Awards 2019, che sono considerati un po' come gli "Oscar dei videogiochi".

Saranno premiati i migliori giochi usciti nel 2019 grazie ai voti delle testate specializzate di tanti paesi attorno al mondo e ai voti degli appassionati. Per votare basta cercare "TGA VOTE" su Google. Il gioco con il maggior numero di nomination è Death Stranding (9 nomination). A seguire Control (8 nomination) e Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice (5 nomination).

La cerimonia di premiazione si terrà alle ore 02:30 (ora italiana) di venerdì 13 dicembre 2019.

Non mancheranno le World Premiere di tanti videogiochi, alcuni dei quali non ancora annunciati. Una delle più lunghe World Premiere della storia dei Game Awards (2017) fu proprio quella di Death Stranding, forse il trailer più bello tra tutti quelli montati da Kojima.
