Fans have cast over three million votes across 18 categories, with three more awards - Best Performer, Breakthrough Award, and Critics Choice Award - decided by a panel of journalists from sites including PC Gamer and GamesRadar, as well as magazines Edge, Play, and RetroGamer. To help work our way through the winners, this year's award ceremony will be presented by voice actors extraordinaire Troy Baker and Laura Bailey. Both of their CVs span the industry, but the pair are best known collectively as the voices of Joel and Abby in The Last of Us Part II.
Troy and Laura will be joined by special guests - see below - to help hand out the awards, as they guide viewers through exclusive trailers, new announcements, and a video looking back over 40 years of the Golden Joystick Awards.
- Sam Lake, Creative Director, Remedy Entertainment
- Maggie Robertson, Actor (Lady Dimitrescu, Resident Evil Village)
- Gary Whitta, Screenwriter (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story)
- Josef Fares, Director, Hazelight Studios (It Takes Two)
- Plus many more!
If you've not been keeping track, it's a pretty hotly-contested year, with Elden Ring in the running for a number of key categories. Nominated for three awards in addition to a Studio of the Year nod for developer FromSoftware, it's also up for the all-important Ultimate Game of the Year award. Other blockbuster games with multiple nominations include God of War Ragnarok, Horizon Forbidden West and Gran Turismo 7. Indies are also well-represented, with acclaimed titles such as Teardown, Tunic, Cult of the Lamb and Immortality - plus more - vying for key awards.

I'm GamesRadar's Managing Editor for news, shaping the news strategy across the team. I started my journalistic career while getting my degree in English Literature at the University of Warwick, where I also worked as Games Editor on the student newspaper, The Boar. Since then, I've run the news sections at PCGamesN and Kotaku UK, and also regularly contributed to PC Gamer. As you might be able to tell, PC is my platform of choice, so you can regularly find me playing League of Legends or Steam's latest indie hit.
