The Game Awards — the gaming industry's biggest night — has come and gone, crowning 2025's standout titles and revealing what's to come in 2026 and beyond.
Host Geoff Keighley kept a surprising number of announcements hidden this year, which added some spice to highly anticipated reveals.
The biggest winner of the night was Sandfall Interactive. The French studio took home a grand total of eight awards for its breakout hit, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, including the prestigious Game of the Year, Best RPG, Best Score and Music and Best Independent Game.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 won nine awards, including game of the year, while newly announced games at the show include the next project from Baldur’s Gate 3 developer Larian Studios
At the Los Angeles’ Peacock theater last night, The Game Awards broadcast its annual mix of prize presentations and expensive video game advertisements. New titles were announced, celebrities appeared, and at one point, screaming people were suspended from the ceiling in an extravagant promotion for a new role-playing game.
Acclaimed French adventure Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 began the night with 12 nominations – the most in the event’s history – and ended it with nine awards. The Gallic favourite took game of the year, as well as awards for best game direction, best art direction, best narrative and best performance (for actor Jennifer English).
Awards, celebrity cameos and new game announcements — catch up on all the the excitement below.
