Controversy Erupts as Cyberpunk 2077 Beats Fortnite for Best Ongoing Game at The Game Awards 2023
Cyberpunk 2077 winning the Best Ongoing Game award at the Video Game Awards (VGA) has sparked controversy as the game is a single-player title that had a disastrous launch and required years of fixes. The VGA's definition of an "ongoing game" seems flawed, as it should have gone to a live-service title that defines itself as such. Other games with significant updates like Warhammer 40K: Darktide and No Man's Sky were not even nominated. The win overshadowed other deserving contenders and pushed them out of the running.
