來到12月又到了選出年度遊戲大獎的時候，除了各大媒體的獨立頒獎，最注目的當然是由全世界的遊戲業界共同投票的THE GAME AWARDS，多個獎項已全部公布，強作如GOW、RDR2更勇奪多獎：

THE GAME AWARDS今年獎項分為3類，公布了22項GAME AWARDS、1項COMMNUNITY AWARD及7項ESPORTS AWARDS，當中最令人關注的THE GAME OF THE YEAR年度最佳遊戲就由《God of War 戰神》奪得，而且作品亦同時取得最佳遊戲指導及最佳動作/冒險遊戲。而另一大作《Red Dead Redemption 2》雖落敗GOTY，但也取得最佳敘事、最佳音樂以及最佳音效設計，而且當中的主角Arthur Morgan（Roger Clark）更奪得最佳演出，作品共勇奪4個獎項。

此外值得注意的獎亦很不少，包括《Monster Hunter World》奪得最佳角色扮演、《Dead Cells》奪得最佳動作、《AstroBot Rescue Mission》奪得最佳VR/AR遊戲、《Overcooked 2》奪得最佳家庭遊戲、《Fortnite》奪得最佳持續遊戲及最佳多人遊戲、《Celeste》奪得最佳獨立遊戲及最衝擊性遊戲。比較遺憾的是佳作如《Marvel's Spider-Man》及相對舊作更好玩的《Assassin's Creed Odyssey》，都因對手太強而未能奪得任何獎項。
