December 9, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Tech News
At an awards event in Los Angeles late on Thursday, the popular role-playing game “Baldur’s Gate 3,” which is set in the Dungeons and Dragons universe, was chosen video game of the year.
It is the newest installment in the Larian Studios-created titular brand, and it takes place in a fantasy world with wizards, elves, barbarians, and other characters.
Chief and creator of the company Swen Vincke accepted the prize, saying, “The team at Larian spent their hearts and souls for six years on this game, sometimes under very difficult circumstances.”
“We lost a good number of people during this Covid game,” he remarked.
As befitting a character from the game that has amassed millions of fans since its release in early August, Vincke was decked up in armor.
“Alan Wake 2,” a survival horror game that won major awards for writing and direction, was one of the other games that was vying for the title at the 2023 Game Awards.
The protagonist of the Remedy Entertainment-published game, Epic Games, is a best-selling novelist who is attempting to escape a parallel universe.
Game director Sam Lake accepted an award and stated, “We can make miracles, we can make art, and we can be more than the sum of our parts when more than 100 people believe in the same vision and build something out of it.”
“We could use a little more of that in our world today,” he remarked.
Celebrities including Timothee Chalamet and Matthew McConaughey made appearances during the ceremony, and a number of teasers for upcoming films were shown.
Legendary Japanese video game developer Hideo Kojima gave a first peek at the “OD” game he is developing with actor and director Jordan Peele.
On stage, Kojima stated that he is collaborating with the cloud computing team and Xbox gaming studios at Microsoft to create an immersive experience for “OD.”
Through an interpreter, Kojima stated, “Don’t get me wrong, it’s a game, but it’s also a movie; a new form of media.”
According to Kojima Productions, OD examines the idea of pushing one’s terror threshold while fusing the worlds of gaming and movies.
The director of the films “Nope,” “Us,” and “Get Out,” Jordan Peele, called Kojima’s work fully immersive and disturbing.
“Jordan grew up playing video games and is now a movie director, and I grew up watching movies and making video games,” Kojima remarked.
He declared, “This collaboration is going to be really awesome.”
