Golden Joystick Award for Game of the Year

The Golden Joystick Awards are one of the longest-running video game award ceremonies, first held in 1983. Organized by the British magazine GamesRadar+, the winners are determined by a global public vote, making them a notable barometer of popular opinion within the gaming community. The awards honor achievements across various categories in the video game industry.

The 2025 ceremony was particularly notable for the dominance of the role-playing game "Clair Obscur: Expedition 33." The game secured a total of seven awards, including the prestigious Ultimate Game of the Year. This achievement tied the record for the most wins at a single ceremony, a feat previously accomplished by "Baldur's Gate 3."

While "Clair Obscur: Expedition 33" was the standout winner, other major titles also received recognition. Games such as "GTA 6," "Hollow Knight: Silksong," "Peak," and "Ghost of Yotei" were all announced as winners in their respective categories. The event highlighted the continued popularity and critical success of the role-playing game genre among players.
