The 2021 BAFTA Game Awards has gone to ‘Hades’.
The BAFTA Game Awards have been given out during a virtual ceremony that was shown across multiple online platforms including Facebook, Twitter, Twitch and YouTube. The ceremony was hosted by journalist Elle Osili-Wood.
Unlike the Game Awards that were awarded back in December where ‘The Last of Us Part II’ won big, at the BAFTA’s it was the dungeon crawler ‘Hades’ that took home the top prize of Best Game amongst its 5 wins. ‘The Last of Us Part II’ did manage to win the EE Game of the Year, the only category in this event to be voted on by the public, which clearly shows that it’s the gamers that make the true and final decision.
