The Game Awards 2023 Winners List

Another year, another jam-packed night at the The Game Awards. Geoff Keighley and co. hosted the 2023 edition of the glitzy Oscar-style event in Los Angeles this week, honouring the industry's best and brightest.

Over 30 awards were handed out at The Game Awards 2023, with Baldur's Gate 3 being the night's biggest winner - scooping six awards including the coveted Game of the Year gong. Larian, who also shadow-dropped Baldur's Gate 3 on Xbox, was given the night's biggest prize by Wonka and Dune star Timothée Chalamet.

Alan Wake 2 was the second biggest winner of the night, with Sam Lake's long-awaited survival horror sequel picking up three TGAs including Best Game Direction. The star-studded event at the Microsoft Theater, which had guest presenters such as Ella Purnell from the upcoming Fallout TV series and Marvel star Anthony Mackie, was also packed full of reveals for new games including Monster Hunter Wilds and the new Marvel Blade Game from Arkane. If you want to catch-up, we've also got a round-up of everything announced at The Game Awards 2023.
