gamescom 2024 has come and gone, and as the annual event ends, now comes the time for awards to games that appeared this year. With categories, such as best visuals and audio to more platform-specific ones (excluding Nintendo this year), like best Xbox games, this list provides every gamescom 2024 award and this year’s recipient.
Of this year’s recipients, Capcom’s upcoming project, Monster Hunter Wilds, won the most awards, winning in every single category it was nominated in, such as Most Entertaining and Most Epic. Supermassive Games and Bandai Namco’s upcoming project, Little Nightmares 3, also won multiple accolades, winning three out of the four categories it was nominated for, such as Best Visuals and Best Audio.
