While Ghost of Yōtei received a whopping 6 nominations this year, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Death Stranding 2: On the Beach had the chance to win up to 5 categories and Hollow Knight: Silksong 4.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 dominated this year with 4 awards, followed by Kingdom Come: Deliverance II and Ghost of Yōtei with 2 awards each. Split Fiction managed to receive 100 % of the votes in Best Multiplayer.
Fortnite has been the only game to be nominated every single year in Best Live Service Game since the category’s inception in 2018 (Best Game as a Service), though it has never managed to win. Instead, you crowned Genshin Impact to be the winner, just like in 2023. In this category, miHoYos Action-RPG now ties with Final Fantasy XIV and No Man’s Sky with 2 wins each.
