The 2024 winners for the Inaugural Global Game Industry Awards have been announced

2020 has been done with for months now, but there’s still one last awards show that has been giving out awards to the best games that were released last year. The Inaugural Global Game Industry Awards, earlier today, announced the winners for categories that include art, audio, design, support, and more.

However, it is not good news for Nintendo. Even though both Microsoft and Sony managed to take home awards, Nintendo failed to win a single award. However, a game that is available on the Nintendo Switch, Hades, managed to win a grand total of 9 awards. You can see the full list of winners down below.
