Stick very well with these names: Lies of P, Metal: Hellsinger, It’s a peanut and Warhammer 40,000: Darktide. These are the most outstanding games by the jury of Gamescom 2022, and that – you want it not – automatically puts them on our radar.
No major video game event is without its own awards ceremony, and the Gamescom 2022 is not the exception: the German fair has offered the awards in two events (the Opening Night Live and the gamescom studio) and we already have the complete list of nominees and winners.
In fact, the awards ceremony itself is a great yardstick of what has been shown these days at Gamescom. absences? very many. No Nintendo game among the most anticipated of Switch and that the most anticipated game of PlayStation and Xbox (according to the jury) come out of the Game Pass are aspects that do not go unnoticed.
In any case, the conclusions drawn are very clear: Lies of P It takes the most awards among a list of nominees with many repeated titles and that leaves us with very noticeable absences with respect to what we have seen and what we can expect from 2022.
Either way, the jury has spoken and, from what is shown, these are his chosen ones.
