The moment gamers eagerly anticipate all year has finally arrived: the discussions surrounding the winners of The Game Awards, the video game industry's largest annual show.

As many in the community predicted due to the massive buzz (and the fact that it is a truly groundbreaking title), the highly acclaimed Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 emerged as the night's most decorated game, with 9 wins!
