Elden Ring: Shadow Of The Erdtree Is A Game Of The Year Contender
For the first time in The Game Awards history, a piece of DLC is a contender for Game of the Year. It was suspected that Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree would make the cut after The Game Awards clarified that "expansion packs, new game seasons, DLCs, remakes and remasters" 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:are eligible for all categories, and now we know that this is absolutely the case. Th🗹is decision proved divౠisive with the gaming community, with some 𝓀feeling that only full games s🌱hould be up for GOTY.
If Shadow of the Erdtree wins, then in a way, Elden Ring would have won GOTY twice, with ﷽the base game winning in 2022.
If we're going based on🍬 Metacritic performance, then the frontrunners wꦇill be Metaphor: ReFantazio, Astro Bot, and Shadow of the Erdtree, which all sit at scores of 94. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is a little behind at 92, then there's Balatro with 90, and Black Myth: Wukong in the back with 81.
