The Game Awards 2018 airs Thursday, Dec. 6th at 9:00PM EST with a half hour pre-show before then. And the man himself, Geoff Keighley is boasting about more than 10 new games being announced and delivering updates on Twitter this week about presenters. Head to the website for the nominees and info on voting. But if you ask me, the awards are just a formality and the real treats are the great games we played this year, and will play next year. And of course new game reveals and trailers all vying to steal the show like it's E3.

Far Cry: New Dawn
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3
Scavengers

The Outer Worlds
Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled
The Last Campfire

And also Joker is the first (paid) DLC newcomer in Smash Ultimate.
And this year's Game of the Year award went to God of War! Whoo!
