The Game Awards Winner Results (2014 – Present)

The Game Awards is an annual celebration and ceremony that recognizes industry achievements in gaming on behalf of developers and content creators. It was initiated in 2014 by Geoff Keighley to serve as the gaming industry’s equivalent to the Oscars. This article lists every past winner by category since inception.

Note: Certain awards have been revised, removed, or added over time.

Previously, the Spike Video Game Awards (VGA) took on the role of an annual gaming awards ceremony, running from 2003 to 2013. It was broadcast on Spike TV near the conclusion of those calendar years.

Keighley worked on this program as well, and the network tried to rename itself from VGA to VGX to reflect a greater focus on next-generation games. Due to limitations, it was dropped completely in 2014 and replaced by The Game Awards.
