That's it, we now know which games will compete for the title of GOTY 2022 at The Game Awards. We remind you that the event will take place on December 8 at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, and will be hosted by Geoff Keighley. According to observers, there is a good chance that the supreme reward will be played between Elden Ring (From Software) and God of War Ragnarök (SIE Santa Monica Studio). The other three productions selected are A Plague Tale: Requiem, Stray, Horizon: Forbidden West and Xenoblade Chronicles 3.
Note that the nominees for the other categories – in particular that of the most anticipated game – have also been defined. We let you discover all this quietly by recalling that Geoff Keighley promised the presence of about fifty games during the ceremony.
