Elden Ring With Most Nominations at Gamescom Awards

The list of games nominated for the Gamescom 2021 awards has been published, and the leader is Elden Ring, which will compete for a statuette in five categories.

We got to know the list of games nominated for this year's Gamescom awards. The chances for the most statuettes, namely five, has Elden Ring, From Software's upcoming action RPG.

The best games for particular hardware platforms will be announced tonight during the Gamescom Opening Night Live broadcast. The remaining awards will be granted in the following days.

What's interesting, among the productions that will compete for the title of best simulation is a game whose title has not been revealed yet, so it will probably be announced during this year's Gamescom.

It is worth noting that the voting for the audience awards has already started. You can pick your favorites until August 28, and the final results will be announced the day after.

Recall that Gamescom Opening Night Live starts today at 11 AM PT and will last about two hours.
