Steam Awards winners revealed; GTA V and Euro Truck Simulator 2 got two awards each

Valve Software has revealed the winners of the first edition of Steam Awards. A word of introduction first. A bit over a month ago the studio asked the community to select their favorite games in several categories from among all the titles ever released on Steam. Then, players would vote for the best one in each category. Now the awards have been given – you can find the list of winners below or on Steam’s website. Note that the only two games that got two awards each are Grand Theft Auto V and Euro Truck Simulator 2. Congratulations to the winners!
