Established in 1983, the Golden Joystick Awards are the world's longest-running public-voted games awards, with a star-studded ceremony held in London. The show is now in its 43rd year, and continues to recognise the talent present all across the video game industry. From those who create experiences that enrich our lives and transfix us during our downtime, to the people that bring those characters and worlds to life, there are plenty of games and studios that deserve recognition. 

Known as the ‘People’s Gaming Awards’, the 2024 edition saw a record-breaking 12.2 million public votes cast across more than 20 categories. Helldivers 2 by Arrowhead Game Studios and Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth by Square Enix were the big winners on the night, claiming three and four awards respectively. The coveted Ultimate Game of the Year award went to Black Myth: Wukong, the first AAA console game from Chinese developer Game Science.
