BAFTA Games 2020 Nominations Announced

4 years 2 months ago

The nominations for the BAFTA Games 2020 Awards have been revealed. IGN's Game of the Year winner Control has the joint-most number of nominations at 11, alongside Death Stranding, which is IGN's Best PS4 Exclusive of 2019. Disco Elysium, which is IGN's Best PC Game of 2019, has been nominated for seven awards.

11 is the highest number of nominations any single game has received since the standalone BAFTA Game awards began in 2004. That high number is helped along by the new award categories this year, which are Animation, Technical Achievement, Best Performer in a Leading Role, and Best Performer in a Supporting Role.

The winner of the EE Mobile Games of the Year award is decided by the public. So if you want to, cast your vote for either Assemble with Care, Call of Duty: Mobile, Dead Man’s Phone, Pokémon Go, Tangle Tower, or What the Golf?.

The winners will be announced on April 2, 2020, and you'll be able to tune into BAFTA's Facebook, Twitch, and YouTube channel to watch it all happen live. As previously announced, Hideo Kojima will receive the BAFTA Fellowship on the night.
