Voting has closed on the PlayStation Blog Game of the 12 months 2024 awards and this 12 months over 1.6 million votes were forged. The winners have been announced across the 19 categories with 4 titles earning trophies per category—bronze, silver, gold, and platinum. There have been some guidelines for this 12 months’s awards with Best Multiplayer Experience specializing in titles released in 2024, while Best Ongoing Game focuses on titles which have received latest, large-scale content or game-changing updates launched over this past 12 months. The category for Best Rerelease consists of games that, within the important, have upgraded visuals and a few quality-of-life improvements, but otherwise are near their original launch version. Best Rerelease doesn’t include full-scale remakes of older titles, but they’re eligible for Game of the 12 months.
To be considered for this 12 months’s awards, the sport should have been released by November 30. Any title released after that date will probably be eligible for nominations and voting next 12 months.
