The Last of Us 2 Wins Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2020

The Game Awards are not only announcements of new games and materials from announced titles. It is primarily about awarding the best game released in 2020. As every year, many interesting categories were prepared, in which a large number of games were nominated.

The most awards, as many as seven (including the most important one - game of the year) were won by The Last of Us 2. Final Fantasy VII Remake and Among Us were also appreciated, having won two awards each (best music / best RPG and best mobile / best multiplayer respectively).
