It is no surprise Nintendo took home a lot of awards thanks not only to the launch of Nintendo Switch but also The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Well here are some honourable mentions.
Beside The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild taking most awards, Cuphead manage to snag 3 awards. It manage to get Best Indie Game, Best Art Direction and Best Debut Indie game. Hopefully Cuphead will come over to the PlayStation soon (Fingers Cross). Overwatch manage to grab the prestige title of Best ESports Game and Best Ongoing Game.
