Vampire Survivors stuns God of War Ragnarök at BAFTA Games Awards 2023
Vampire Survivors pulled off a shock at this year's BAFTA Games Awards, beating Elden Ring and God of War Ragnarök to the Best Game award.
The indie roguelike game, developed by Poncle, won two awards on the night from its five nominations, with its other win being for Game Design.
Despite missing out on Best Game, God of War Ragnarök picked up six prizes, the most awards at the ceremony, taking home Animation, Audio Achievement, Music, Performer in a Leading Role (Christopher Judge), and Performer in a Supporting Role (Laya Deleon Hayes), as well as the public-voted EE Game of the Year award.
Elden Ring and Tunic had two awards each, while Immortality won Narrative and Final Fantasy XIV earned Evolving Game.
Kirby and the Forgotten Land, Horizon Forbidden West, Rollerdrome, and Endling: Extinction Is Forever were among the other winners.
Stray and A Plague Tale: Requiem ended the night empty-handed, despite being nominated for nine and five categories respectively.
