The nominees for the fourth annual Game Awards have been revealed, and big-hitters like Super Mario Odyssey, Destiny 2, Wolfenstein II, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and Horizon Zero Dawn are all up for multiple awards.
There's also plenty of choice outside of the triple-A bubble, with indie offerings like What Remains of Edith Finch, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, Cuphead, Night in the Woods, and Bury Me, My Love all in contention.
Notably, this year's ceremony will include two new awards: one for live games, and one for mobile titles, with the former being added so the show is "more reflective of games being ongoing services instead of one-time releases."
The complete list of nominees features 102 games and individuals, with the winners due to be revealed live on Thursday, December 7. You can head on over to The Game Awards website for the full rundown, but we've taken the liberty of spotlighting some of the more notable categories below.
