“The Game Awards” Awards: Picking the night’s best new game trailers

If you have over three hours to spare, feel free to watch the entire Game Awards presentation. If not, check out some of the best trailers below.

Thursday night's annual presentation of The Game Awards was ostensibly about recognizing the best games that came out in the last year, and titles like God of War: Ragnarok and Elden Ring ended the night as big winners.
