The Interactive Academy of Arts and Sciences has chosen the video games nominated for the D.I.C.E. Awards 2022, which on this occasion will celebrate its 25th edition and in which, as usual, it will name the best video games that have gone on sale in 2021 in a series of different categories.
But for that you have to know first what are the nominees, whose list has just come to light with 59 different games that will try to win one of the many prizes that will be distributed. Among all of them, Ratchet & Clank: A Separate Dimension stands out as the one that has received the most nominations with a total of nine.
Deathloop is hot on his heels with eight, while Inscryption and It Takes Two each come up with six. Precisely all of them are the ones that are nominated for the best game of the year along with Returnal, so on February 24
In fact, being the most nominated does not mean anything, because The Last of Us: Part II appeared last time in 11 categories and only won in two of them, so next month we will see if the same story repeats itself with the latest installment of Ratchet. Until then, here you go the complete list:
