Daftar Nominasi The Game Awards 2018 Didominasi Oleh Game-Game PlayStation

God of War dan Marvel's Spider-Man berkali-kali muncul di kategori berbeda.

Mundurnya Geoff Keighley dari Video Game Awards karena sang produser merasa perhelatan itu lebih diarahkan pada aspek komersial ternyata merupakan keputusan tepat. Dilangsungkan sejak 2014, The Game Awards adalah realisasi dari visi Keighley mengenai acara selebrasi ideal yang dimaksudkan untuk mengapresiasi pencapaian-pencapaian penting di industri gaming.

Penyelenggara memilih bulan Desember sebagai momen dilaksanakannya The Game Awards. Dan sebagaimana tradisi sebelumnya, Keighley dan kawan-kawan biasanya mengumumkan nominasi game-game yang berpeluang menerima penghargaan beberapa minggu sebelumnnya. Dan untuk ajang di tahun 2018 ini, judul-judulnya didominasi oleh permainan untuk console PlayStation 4.

Ada hampir 30 kategori penghargaan yang diperebutkan oleh game-game ini, dan Anda sudah dipersilakan melakukan voting. Daftar lengkapnya bisa disimak di bawah:
