AstroBot took home top honors at the Game Awards on Thursday night, winning the Game of the Year trophy among three other awards. The platformer – a playable homage to Sony's 30-year history – also won the award for best game direction.
However, other Game of the Year nominations have not been ruled out. Indie breakthrough success Balatro won three awards; Atlus fantasy role-playing game Metaphor: ReFantasia received the same number of awards, including an award for best narrative. Helldivers 2 And Black Myth: Wukong Everyone took home two statues and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth won an award for best music and score.
