You may think to yourself that it’s still a little too soon to hand out Game of the Year awards, but Japan’s Game Awards’ are selected from April through March, instead of the usual January to December period. Elden Ring became the talk of the town ever since its release, with fans and critics praising the developers for creating such a masterful title. It also proved to be a commercial success, with over 16 million copies sold globally in just over three months.
Elden Ring received a perfect score of 10/10 in our review of the game, with our writer calling it “FromSoftware’s best game to date and a genuine masterpiece.” Don’t be surprised if we Elden Ring again at Keighly’s Game Awards show in December!
