Another iteration of the annual BAFTA Games Awards is creeping upon us, and the nominations for all categories for this year have finally been revealed today. The British Academy Games Awards seeks to honor "outstanding creative achievement within the gaming industry" for the past year. The 19th iteration of the auspicious night will celebrate the best that 2022 had to offer.

Serenading the hard work and efforts of the video game industry, the first British Academy Video Games Awards was conducted in 2004. The event saw Call of Duty (2003) pick up the award for that year's Best Game, with the latest winner being Returnal (2021).

Without further ado, here's the complete nominations list across all categories for this year's BAFTA Games Awards.
