Game Awards 2024: New Rules Stir GOTY Nomination Debate
TL;DR Summary
The Game Awards has introduced a controversial new rule allowing DLCs, remakes, and remasters to be eligible for major categories, including Game of the Year, if deemed worthy by the jury. This change means expansions like Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree could compete for top awards, despite the base game having already won in 2022. This decision has stirred debate as it could impact the chances of other anticipated titles like Metaphor: ReFantazio and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. The Game Awards 2024 will be livestreamed on December 12.
