It’s that time of the year where the “Game of the Year” debating really gets interesting. It also just happens to be awards show season for the video gaming industry. Although The Game Awards are the most famous of them, they aren’t the only ones. There is also the Golden Joystick Awards, where voting is currently underway until November 8th.
That said, the Golden Joystick Awards have officially unveiled their nominees for “Ultimate Game of the Year”. There are 12 of them, though none of them were published by Nintendo. In fact, a lot of the games didn’t even release on the Nintendo Switch. Nevertheless, the winners for all of the categories will be announced on November 21st. You can see the list of “Ultimate Game of the Year” down below.
- Satisfactory
- Astro Bot
- Silent Hills 2 Remake
- Call of Duty: Black Ops 6
- Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
- Dragon Age The Veilguard
- Metaphor ReFantazio
- Animal Well
- Balatro
- Tekken 8
- Helldivers 2
- Black Myth: Wukong

you forgot to mention that sonic x shadow generations isn’t in that list too 😆
That one game made by Nintendo… both of Zelda games this year were great… as is. super Mario wonder … surely better than a lot of games nominated here …. I won’t be worrying about this organization obviously biased listen in the future …
The latest Dragon Age game gets nominated and not Echoes of Wisdom? well then…
No Sonic x Shadow, no P3R, no SMTVV, no Echoes of Wisdom, Dragon Age…
Yeah, they aren’t even hiding, are they?
Very wired to see Nintendo get completely left off this list…
Metaphor is gonna win this one, I guess
