Πραγματοποιήθηκε η εκδήλωση Golden Joystick Awards 2022 για 40η χρονιά, η οποία μπορεί να έχει χάσει την αίγλη του παρελθόντος λόγω των The Game Awards του Geoff Keighley, αλλά δεν παύει να παραμένει ένα πολύ σημαντικό γεγονός για την βιομηχανία του gaming.
Οι διοργανωτές αναφέρουν ότι δέχτηκαν εκατομμύρια ψήφους από τους gamers με σκοπό να αναδειχτούν τα κορυφαία games της χρονιάς, όπως και τα studios που τα δημιούργησαν, με το Elden Ring να κερδίζει τα περισσότερα βραβεία. Αξιοσημείωτες νίκες είναι και αυτές των Steam Deck ως κορυφαίο gaming hardware, το Stray ως κορυφαίο PlayStation game, το Return to Monkey Island ως κορυφαίο PC game και το Grounded ως κορυφαίο Xbox game.
Ακολουθεί η λίστα με όλους τους υποψήφιους και τους νικητές ανά κατηγορία και μένει να δούμε αν θα δούμε ανάλογα αποτελέσματα και στα The Game Awards σε λίγες ημέρες.
