The Game Awards 2022 will take place on Thursday, December 8, at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. The event honours the year’s best, with a healthy dose of new game reveals and performances thrown in for good measure. 

We don’t yet know what games are in the running this year, but all that’s about to change as all the nominees will be unveiled today, November 14, 2022, at 9am PT / 12pm ET / 5 pm GMT. In a livestream viewable on The Game Awards YouTube channel, host Geoff Keighley will be announcing the contenders in more than 30 different categories, so be sure to tune in later to see if your favourite games of the last year have made the cut.

Alongside a voting jury, players can help decide who wins on the big night. Fan voting opens as soon as the nominations are revealed, and you can make your selection at thegameawards.com. With such an incredible array of titles launching this year, from mighty AAA adventures such as God of War Ragnarok and Elden Ring to dazzling indies like Tunic, this year’s show is sure to be nothing short of epic.

The Game Awards has grown massively over the last few years to become one of the industry’s most prestigious annual events. Last year’s ceremony set a new record with an estimated 85 million views and saw the brilliant co-op adventure It Takes Two nab the prize for Best Family Game, Best Multiplayer, and even Game of the Year. We were also treated to appearances from Hollywood stars, including Keanu Reeves and Carrie Anne-Moss and performances by Sting and Imagine Dragons.

Originally from Ireland, I moved to the UK in 2014 to pursue a Games Journalism and PR degree at Staffordshire University. Following that, I've freelanced for GamesMaster, Games TM, Official PlayStation Magazine and, more recently, Play and GamesRadar+. My love of gaming sprang from successfully defeating that first Goomba in Super Mario Bros on the NES. These days, PlayStation is my jam. When not gaming or writing, I can usually be found scouring the internet for anything Tomb Raider related to add to my out of control memorabilia collection.
