The BAFTA Games Awards 2023 was held last night in all its gold and glitter, with the hallowed ceremony honoring the best video games and professionals from the past year. While heavy-hitter God of War Ragnarok took home the highest number of awards, six out of a possible 14, it was indie delight Vampire Survivors that was crowned the Best Game.
Tunic managed to nab the Artistic Achievement award and the Best Debut Game award. Interestingly, Elden Ring was given the Best Multiplayer title, with the latest Miyazaki masterpiece winning over other traditional multiplayer games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II, FIFA 23, and Overwatch 2.
Without further ado, here's the full list of winners across all categories at this year's BAFTA Games Awards.
