2023 Game Awards to be Broadcast on December 7th
Since its inception in 2014, The Game Awards has experienced tremendous growth and has become a highly anticipated year-end celebration for gaming enthusiasts worldwide. If you’re eagerly anticipating this year’s show, mark your calendars because the 10th annual event will be streamed live from the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles on December 7th, 2023. As in previous years, the show will be available for free streaming on multiple platforms such as Twitch, YouTube, Facebook, TikTok Live, Steam, and X (formerly known as Twitter).
Last year’s show was the biggest to date, with an estimated 103 million viewers watching, which was almost 20 million more than 2021’s numbers. It also introduced the Best Adaptation category, reserved for projects that translate video games into popular media such as movies, TV shows, and books. In addition, Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey, the stars of The Last of Us, which fans were still eagerly waiting for and which had not premiered at the time, attended the event to present the award. Organizers have yet to reveal whether they will be hosting big stars again this year, but they said the event will feature musical performances by The Game Awards Orchestra and other artists. Of course, you can expect to see new game trailers and announcements about release dates and expansions, among other things.
Geoff Keighley, creator and executive producer of The Game Awards, said: “Every year we look forward to hosting a show that honors the standout games of the year, while also announcing and previewing some of the world’s biggest and most anticipated video games. With so many beloved video game franchises exploring new mediums and developers are creating new experiences across platforms, whether it’s games, TV, movies and more, the industry continues to grow in many surprising ways, and we can’t wait to honor the best games of the year and show viewers around the world what’s next.”
