Death Stranding Becomes Top Nominee on GDC Awards 2020

Death Stranding was nominated in seven categories.

We already know the full list of nominations for this year's Game Developers Choice Awards. The chance for the most statuettes, as many as seven, has Death Stranding created by the Japanese studio Kojima Productions. The results were slightly worse for Control and Outer Wilds (five nominations each), as well as Untitled Goose Game and Disco Elysium (both nominated in four categories).

The winners of GDC Awards 2020 will be announced on March 18 this year. We would like to remind that on the same day the Independent Games Festival awards, for the best independent games will also be presented.
