Nominations for iteration in 2025 Game Developers Choice Awards, an event that takes place every year at the Game Developers conference in San Francisco, were revealed today and although several known titles appear, the list was created is far from one -one with prizes to the game 2024.
One of the reasons is to include honorary references; Each prize category contains a handful of these additional games that almost cut. Also, unlike the Game Awards, whose nominees and winners are voted by press members, the finalists of the Game Choice prize programmers – as the title indicates – are chosen by game creators.
Here’s which games qualify for GDC, according to the press message: “Every video game that has been released and made public in the calendar year 2024 is entitled to free nomination for 2025 Game Developers Choice Awards.” This is another difference in relation to gaming awards that occur at the beginning of December and therefore could not take into account, say Indiana Jones and the Great Circle In its composition 2024 (this game and other December editions will be considered for 2025 TGA). However, this is surprising Indiana Jones I didn’t make a cut either.
