In the early hours of this morning Geoff Keighley presented his annual event The Game Awards.
You can find the full stream of the event here and, while it is loaded with new trailers, news and special offers, it’s also incredibly long. We recommend putting the stream on in the background if you really want to see who won but we’ve also compiled a full list of the winners below.
The award winners are decided by a panel of judges that includes 103 members of the media and influencers from around the world. These include publishers such as Game Informer, IGN and creators such as Gameranx and Kinda Funny.
