Geoff Keighley is hosting the video game awards this year. This will take place Dec 11, 2025 and will be held in the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. The game awards have been around since 2014, and has been a hit every year it primes.
The game awards have 118 million people who watch every time it goes on air. This makes an impact in the gaming world by having negative and positive opinions on the awards given to the games. Some people don’t like the award given to a game and some people support that game getting that specific award.
There are 50 categories of awards that can be given to games based on that award. For example, the best mobile game was handed out to Balatro last year during the game awards. Then there is the Game of the Year award, this is handed out to the judges opinion of the best game all around of the year. Last year, it was handed out to Astro Bot, a Playstation-exclusive game.
Bryce Buchanan, a SLHS junior, says, “I am very excited about the game awards, because of the new Playstation exclusive games.” He also says, “I am hoping that Insomniac’s Wolverine will have a release date set.”
As you can see students are excited for the Game Awards to come around. Like Bryce said not all of it is about awards, there are also games getting revealed and their release dates set. Harley Mader, an SLHS senior says, “I’m excited because there are more story games that are competing for game of the year.” He also says, “I want Silksong to win it all because it’s a newer game and newer games don’t win too much.”
As you can see, many SLHS students are excited for the Game Awards to take place December 11th. Students are also excited for the games being released and games that were already revealed getting their release dates released. The Game Awards will be a hit for SLHS and the world for years to come, and students will be excited annually.
