The highest honor of Game of the Year was awarded to Supergiant Games’ Hades.
“I am so proud to be able to say we have held the world’s first LGBTQ video game award show,” said Robin Gray, founder of Gayming Magazine. “2020 was truly a watershed moment for LGBTQ inclusion in games and to be able to celebrate it with everyone, although virtually, was amazing! Congratulations to all the winners, well done to all the nominees and thank you again to all our sponsors! See you in 2022!”
