If you'd like to search out out what occurred in the pre-present... just scroll slightly further down.
LET'S KICK THIS Factor INTO High GEAR.
First up, it is a super Smash Bros. Final DLC character reveal. A short cinematic reveals the new character to be Sephiroth from Last Fantasy VII. I didn't anticipate that. Twitch chat goes foolish. We thought Mario was lifeless... but he is okay. Phew.
Brie Larson is right here to current the first award. It's for the best Performance and it goes to Laura Bailey for her efficiency as Abby in the Last of Us Part 2. It also appears her cellphone is dinging, which is a pleasant little contact and a reminder everyone's doing this thing from home this year.
Not to mess with Geoff however I really feel like this suit is a little bit bland. Carn, massive G.
Here is One other WORLD PREMIERE. This one is coming from The Initiative, one of the studios underneath Xbox Recreation Studios. The trailer starts with a beautifully-rendered Earth and area station. We're flying via a futuristic world and then... out of nowhere we hear the title Agent Darkish. This can be a trailer for Perfect Dark. WOW.
One other WORLD PREMIERE. This one is all zombies... and it looks as if we is perhaps getting a brand new Left four Dead... it is really Again 4 Blood. "We needed to do extra and larger," says Chris Ashton from Turtle Rock. He throws straight into gameplay for Back 4 Blood... word: Pre-Alpha. We'll publish it down the underside of the web page when it's prepared. It's coming in June 2021.
So, uh, anyone know when we might get another award? Ha! Simply kidding, awards, aschmords. Give me the hype trailers.
Hood Outlaws & Legends will get a trailer, then Nintendo drops an Indies showcase which ...look. I am unable to keep up with that guys. I'm solely human. I am however one man. At this point, I am more RSI than man. My wrist is bouncing everywhere in the place. I need carrot cake.
AWARD TIME. We're back with some real awards and there's an important little moment with Sean Murray, head on No Man's Sky. It is absolutely gorgeous how far that game has come. There was such an uproar at its launch and now have a look at it, successful a Game Award for Finest Ongoing Sport beating the likes of Fortnite ... Cool.
Another WORLD PREMIERE. I'm simply copy-pasting world premiere now. I'll dream of world premieres when i sleep tonight. But here we go with The Callisto Protocol? It looks like a sci-fi title and likewise perhaps a horror title? There is a two-mouthed monster. It has one mouth after which one other mouth beneath. How would you kiss it? The highest mouth first? A lot of questions right here. Sort of bought Dead House vibes from it... We deserve a brand new Dead Space.
Wait. Striking Distance studios CEO Glen Schofield is a survival horror set on Jupiter's moon Callisto. Yes. Give it to me. Callisto is one in every of Jupiter's forgotten moons. We at all times hear about bloody Io, Europa and Ganymede. Get out.
QUICKFIRE AWARDS TIME. Right here we go together with four awards. Best VR/AR, Best Sports/Racing, Best Action, Finest Art Path.
Elden Ring grabs... probably not an award however essentially the most Anticipated Sport. That is the George R. R. Martian recreation, from the creators of Dark Souls. Needs to be goooooood.
WORLD PREMIERE, Again. This one seems delightful. It's called Open Roads. Check the trailer because my palms are sore however this is from the Gone House workforce. Might be legit.
Disco Elysium: The final Reduce is coming in March 2021, a free improve for all players. Can I call this a World Premiere? I guess so. It's a WORLD PREMIERE. Can't wait to rely up these World Premieres later and completely flip out. This is all going so fast. It's insanity.
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. A giant one. It is for Dragon Age. I can not even tell you what any of this implies because I do not play each single sport on the planet and Dragon Age has by no means been a giant one for me.
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. I haven't caught up. I am up to now behind. I don't even know where to look. I'm sorry. Go on with out me. Tell my dad and mom I beloved them. This one known as Endless Dungeon.
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. It's Crimson Desert -- Geoff tells everybody it features actual gameplay footage and it is lovely. It is an MMO with a robust single player and we've identified about it for a while but here comes some big gameplay. It seems to be absolutely immaculate. Geoff was not lying. The MOUNTAINS. I wish to run along them and dip my face in the cold streams and bring the water to my face. It seems... real? SNOW. Let me lay in it. Mud. Ew. Bad.
We're Back TO AWARDS Here Folks. John David Washington, who performs a personality known as Narrative within the movie Tenet, is giving out the award for Finest Narrative. We are by the looking glass right here, people. This is VIDEO Games. Alright, he announces the winner as the Final of Us Half 2. That is the third? award... for TLOU2? I think so.
MUPPETS TIME. We are now within the Muppets part of the present, which has turn into an ordinary part of the sport Awards, following the success of Beaker and Goose final year. He's here for a WORLD PREMIERE. It's... Overcooked is including the Swedish Chef. Okay, sure, that passes as a World Premiere I guess!
Is anybody studying this? Please help me. I'm trapped in the video video games sales and advert machine. Reggie, is that you simply? Are you able to assist me? Anybody? Is somebody there? [endless screaming]
Whoa, sorry about that. It's been a weird 10 minutes. We had an advert to help you stop vaping, a Call of Duty trailer and now we're going into a brief music session to have fun Mario turning 35 years outdated. Oh man, the drummer was killing it! I am again. This makes me happy. I'm okay. Thanks on your concern.
AWARDS TIME. Wow, it's Gal Gadot! Wonder Woman herself. She's here to present the Video games for Impact awards, which fits to tell Me Why. That's a cracking recreation.
STRAIGHT INTO WORLD PREMIERE. And it is Vin Diesel. Vin DIESEL. He is right here with none sort of quick automotive or a shirt. He's combating some dudes and next minute a freaking dinosaur appears out of the forest. AND EATS A person. What the hell, this is the perfect Fast & Furious yet. IT HAS FEATHERS. It is ARK II, starring Vin Diesel. Unsure if the "starring Vin Diesel" Must be in the title or not, but I'd say so. The group additionally announce an Ark animated sequence. A Dinosaur Anime. Dinosaurs are again. 2021, 2022. I'm calling it.
The Vin Diesel game has memes going all over the place. It is beautiful.
TRAILER TIME. It's for Fall Guys: Final Knockout. Lots of dissonance for me with this one. It's exhibiting a winter wonderland and down right here in Australia it's FREAKING Sizzling. It was 120 degrees Fahrenheit. I want summer season clothes. Shorts please!
GAMEPLAY REVEAL. Odyssey: Elite Dangerous permits you to discover on foot for the first time. The song is Area Oddity by David Bowie since you just cannot do sci-fi with out Major Tom or Ground Control. It is smart. Arrives in Early 2021.
A brief trailer for Checkpoint which brings psychological well being sources to the gaming neighborhood. Good.
TRAILERSsssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. They are going to be at the bottom of the page, no world premieres in right here but take a look anyway.
AWARDS TIME. We are back with Nolan North, the man of 1,000 different video recreation voices. He's presenting the very best Multiplayer Game and it goes to the Amongst Us group. This is fantastic. An attractive second. This is the sport that people like AOC have been absolutely hammering these days. The winners are emotional! I find it irresistible. Lovely!

Would you consider it though... the colon has let video games down yet again. Colons are banned. Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate takes it house.
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. Here we go again folks. This one is fast-paced. Coming 2021, it's Returnal.
I am going to the rest room now. Sorry if I miss many issues. WAIT NO REGGIE IS ABOUT To hitch US.
Josef Fares is here now for a WORLD "Unique" he calls it... It's a WORLD PREMIERE but we do not thoughts as a result of he's a bundle of joy. Just loves messing around. You might remember him from that time he swore at the game Awards and was instantly a star. He's revealing gameplay from It Takes Two, which seems to be quite playful. Gal Gadot would most likely say it was "enjoyable," you would assume. Geoff throws in that he is mates with Josef and noticed the sport last time he was in Stockholm... what does Geoff do all 12 months moreover play games.
REGGIE TIME. Digital camera AND AUDIO IS Average Identical to I might Want AND Expect. He's right here to announce an AWARD which is the Innovation in Accessibility award. He says gaming is for everybody and gosh darn it, Reggie you're right. The award goes to The Last of Us Half 2.
WORLD PREMIERE. This one is for The Elder Scrolls On-line, which is getting a brand new growth in 2021. The growth is called Elder Scrolls Online: Gates of Oblivion. The trailer is purely cinematic and does not give too much away.
AWARDS TIME. It's the award for Finest Cell Sport and it goes to Among Us. It's their second award of the night time. They're overwhelmed and so completely satisfied. It was launched in 2018, however I assume it is a factor this year so... you'll be able to win every time. Trying forward to Pong's inevitable comeback.
It's Another WORLD PREMIERE FOR YOU AND FOR ME. This one is Monster Hunter Rise. A huge franchise that I don't actually understand however individuals find it irresistible so, let's go for all you Monster Hunter followers. Take pleasure in.
We're back with Eddie Vedder, Pearl Jam lead singer and he says he actually appreciates how Future Days was used in the Last of Us Half 2. I really like that he seems genuine about video video games as a medium and that was a really nice little rendition. Was hoping he'd belt out Jeremy, if I'm being totally trustworthy.
I can't get over Geoff's footwear and go well with mixture. I just can't. It is dangerous.
WORLD PREMIERE. We are out in the Wild West, I think? All the pieces goes darkish. This is some guns. A man walking. Monsters being shot. That is VIDEO Games, individuals. There's nothing quite like video games. Shoot a factor, hit a factor, kill a factor. You gotta adore it. It is known as EVIL WEST and it's... I imply, the title is sufficient proper? Haha. I actually do love video games, guys, I swear.
Somewhat Among Us announcement now -- it's getting a new map referred to as "The Airship" that shall be prepared in "Early 2021." There can also be a Geoff Keighley mask in Among Us now... he's laughing about it however inside, Geoff, I can tell. It is a moment for him. The mask.
AWARDS TIME. It's Content material Creator of the Year time. "They unified us all with our shared passion for play," says Jacksepticeye. Valkyrae takes home this award. Someone may have to elucidate this one to me. I'm the science editor so I, uh... I am still caught up on the Ark 2 dinosaur feathers and the freakin' game about CALLISTO. Like, good day!
WORLD PREMIERE TIME. It's Fortnite... and HALO? Grasp Chief is becoming a member of Fortnite. There you go. He's accessible tonight and there's extra Halo coming as nicely. Ninja exhibits up in another trailer featuring the Purple vs. Blue characters Sarge and Griff. There's a new map: Halo's Blood Gulch is in artistic mode and you may play Seize the Flag, tonight! And yet one more factor... Strolling Dead characters Michonne and Daryl Dixon are additionally in Fortnite. Okay? Look, we all principally stay in Fortnite now. It's the Matrix.
This all seems like a fever dream to me. I haven't any concept of time or actuality. Do I stay in Fortnite... or has Fortnite lived within me all alongside? And the mates I made alongside the way? They're gone... they've disappeared into the ether. They've dissolved away; our bodies of pure hype rise of their place. However they can not speak. They just play video recreation trailers. If you're studying this, flip back now. You cannot go any deeper. Your bones will flip to dust, your teeth will fall out... the hair in your head will slide off your skull. There's nothing here but video recreation. Video recreation is all the pieces.
Everybody going okay? Great! We're in the home stretch I feel, there must be like half-hour left at most? I hope so. Every now an once more we flick back to a Pokemon GO! advert referred to as Wooper Watch.

ALRIGHT ITS WORLD PREMIERE TIME, Because WE Have not HAD Enough OF These HAVE WE? I imply, certainly we have not. This one is named Ruined King: A League of Legends Story which will be coming to console and Computer in 2021.
AWARD TIME: It is Keanu. I am awake and prepared for this. Let's go. This award is for Finest Recreation Course and it goes to The Last of Us Half 2, which is absolutely cleansing up at this show. I think that is quantity 4 or 5? Wait, nope. It is quantity SIX. Neil Druckmann is right here to just accept the award. He thanks the awards and all of the followers. But there's one last award Geoff tells me. It's going to end. This is the tip. Thank you.

I am, definitively, achieved with video games forever after this however... this would possibly convey me back. It is bringing me back. Nope. It's Mass Effect. No details, but it just says Mass Effect will continue... Pretty big!
It's the Final AWARD. The game OF THE 12 months. If there's any indication from the remainder of the night we're going to get a final of Us Part 2 win.
