The curtain has dropped on the nominees for the tenth annual Game Awards, and the stage is set for fan voting. If you’re itching to see your favorite game clinch the trophy and bask in the glory of bragging rights, fret not. We’ve got the lowdown on exactly how to cast your vote.
Major contenders like “Alan Wake 2,” “The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom,” and “Baldur’s Gate 3” are competing fiercely for the Game of the Year title. Beyond this prestigious category, there’s a plethora of others, covering accessibility, art direction, adaptations, and more. The lineup is packed with titles all vying for their moment of victory.
Voting for The Game Awards 2023 Nominees
If you’re ready to make your voice heard in The Game Awards 2023, head straight to the official Game Awards website. Just like in previous years, potential voters can log in and cast their votes through Twitch, Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter/X accounts. Simply choose your preferred login platform and set sail into the realm of votes.
Once you’ve logged in, the voting adventure begins. Navigate through the categories and cast your votes for your favorite finalists. Remember, you only get one chance per category, so ensure your choices are final before you submit your ballot.
It’s essential to note that fan voting accounts for just 10% of the award voting process. The remaining 90% comes from a carefully selected jury responsible for determining the award winners. The show’s website addresses the rationale behind this split in its FAQ section.
