We have 15 total categories, but we&#8217;ll only decide the next 7 in this episode (because 3.5 hours is long enough!) Each category, much like Giant Bomb&#8217;s awards, gets one overall winner and two runners up. This episode&#8217;s categories are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Best Online Game<\/li><li>Best On The Go Game<\/li><li>Best Narrative (Sponsored by The Last of Us Part II)<\/li><li>Best Non-Violent Game<\/li><li>Games That Couldn\u2019t Quite Stick The Landing (Sponsored by Cyberpunk 2077)<\/li><li>God Bless This Mess<\/li><li>Zeitgeist of the Year<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We have one more Game of the Year episode for you, and it&#8217;ll be way shorter than the last two, thankfully. It&#8217;ll be just our discussion of the ultimate Game of the Year, which will be a ranked list of ten games rather than just 3 games.
