Here's how to watch The Game Awards 2023

E3, what was once the biggest video game expo, is officially dead. The Entertainment Software Association (ESA) confirmed the news on Twitter, thanking the fans and developers who attended and supported the in-person show for over two decades. Its closure was only a matter of time, slyly signalled in March, when the 2023 edition got cancelled due to a lack of interest from several publishers including the big three — PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo — all of which pulled out. Add to that pandemic-era disruption which caused global lockdowns, competitors such as Summer Game Fest, and the general audience preferring to catch up on game reveals from the comfort of their homes, eventually leading to its demise.

Game developers have shared their reaction to the news that E3 won’t be returning.

What a year it’s been. We’ve seen a host of terrific games come out (and some not-so-terrific ones), with ups and downs across the board. But what’s interesting is seeing which specific games people were searching for in 2023.

Larian Studios and Remedy led The Game Awards last night, with Baldur's Gate 3 winning six awards including Game of the Year, and Alan Wake 2 taking home three of the eight it was nominated for.

An avalanche of new game announcements hit at The Game Awards 2023, ranging from the return of classic franchises to the reveals of all-new worlds. For those of you looking for a rundown of everything announced, we’ve got you covered.

The Game Awards 2023 have come to a close, and it was another night filled with trophies and trailers. Even before the show started, there was a sheer glut of game reveals to watch.

The winners of the several categories of The Game Awards 2023 have been revealed, with many games and industry names being celebrated for their feats this year. In total, the event abbreviated as TGA 2023 gave out 31 awards in different categories, ranging from the Game of the Year (also known as GOTY) to Content Creator of the Year and even Best Esports Coach. The awards acknowledge the best of gaming every year, and in 2023, there were a lot of good releases. Some titles like and stood out more than others, appearing as nominees in multiple categories in The Game Awards 2023.

It’s time for The Game Awards 2023. That one night a year where the industry tunes in for a somewhat bizarre blend of trailers, marketing, hype, awards, and celebrity cameos.

The 2023 edition of The Game Awards, hosted by Geoff Keighly, airs tonight starting at 4:30 p.m. P.T./7:30 p.m.

The Game Awards 2023 is almost here, and it’s sure to deliver a hearty dose of the things the show is known for – speeches, musical numbers, Geoff Keighley awkwardly reading ad copy, and, of course, new trailers and reveals. This year, the show is dropping the “World Premiere” branding for the new trailers and footage shown, but Geoff Keighley actually promises more reveals than usual.

If you’re watching The Game Awards tonight, you’ll want to sign up for a pair of sweepstakes for your chance to win a free Steam Deck OLED and/or a free Lenovo Legion Go. The Game Awards did a similar promotion last year, giving away 100 Steam Decks. This year, however, the show has upped the ante, offering 100 Steam Deck OLED units and 100 Lenovo Legion Go gaming handhelds to lucky viewers.

The Game Awards takes place on Thursday, Dec. 7 and, for the third year running, we’ll be watching along on our Twitch channel and hosting our own awards!
