Objavljene su nominacije za Golden Joystick Awards 2024, najstariju dodjelu nagrada za igre

---

Golden Joystick Awards je najdugovječnija dodjela nagrada za najbolje videoigre. Traje još od 1983. godine, a za 42. izdanje eventa jučer je otkrivena lista nominacija te je krenulo glasovanje. Nominacije je složio panel sastavljen od novinara PC Gamera, Future Game Showa, Edge magazina, Retro Gamera, GamesRadara i drugih publikacija. Pobjednike odlučuju glasovi publike, a glasovanje je otvoreno za sve zainteresirane.

Nagrade se dijele u 19 kategorija, a ove godine dodano je šest novih kategorija, uključujući one za najbolju indie igru koju je developer samostalno lansirao na tržište, te najbolji soundtrack i dizajn zvuka.

Najviše nominacija ove godine dijele igre Astro Bot i Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth (po pet komada svaka), a slijede ih Helldivers 2 (četiri nominacije) i Balatro (četiri nominacije). Glasovanje je otvoreno do 1. 11., a rezultati će biti otkriveni na ceremoniji 21. 11.
