With its release just around the corner on14 November,The Golden Joystick Awardswill havean exclusive interview with Pete Hines about Fallout 76, which is a must-see for folks awaiting its arrival. That’s not all as we will also get to witness developer walkthroughs ofHitman 2andPokémon: Let’s Go.
The Golden Joystick Awardswill be hosted by British filmmaker and comedian Danny Wallace who I’m sure will incorporate a bit of laughter and fun while presenting some awards.
Millions of votes have been cast in categories such as Ultimate Game of the Year, Most Wanted Game and PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo and PC Game of the Year. All in all, there are 18 categories voted for by the general public, with five critics choice awards which we won’t know about until the day of the event. We will also get to see who wins the coveted awards for Lifetime Achievement, Outstanding Contribution, and the Critics Choice Award.
If you are in the mood for some exclusive reveals fromAce Combat 7: Skies UnknownandMan of Medan, then you’re in luck as they will be shown at some stage throughout the ceremony, too.
