2025 BAFTA Games Awards winners announced

Today is officially the day that the British Academy of Film and Television Arts, or BAFTA for short, held their annual awards show. It is during their awards show that it is revealed what video games and developers are taking home BAFTA awards. The results have since been released and the winners were announced. That said, they may not surprise you at all.
