Baldur's Gate 3 awards in The Game Awards 2023
Baldur's Gate 3 was awarded an impressive six awards during The Game Awards 2023. In fact, it won the first award during the ceremony. Neil Newbon, the actor behind the incredibly popular Astarion, won “Best Performance” over the likes of Ben Starr (FF16), Cameron Monaghan (Star Wars Jedi: Survivor), and more. His speech was brief but heartfelt nonetheless.
All awards won by Baldur's Gate 3 at The Game Awards 2023:
- Best Performance
- Best Community Support
- Best Role Playing Game
- Best Multiplayer Game
- Player's Voice
- Game of the Year
Later in the event, Baldur's Gate 3 picked up “Best Community Support,” which certainly makes sense. Larian Studios had been open with the fanbase for years before the game was officially released. The updates were massive, and the developer was always clued into what the fans were looking for - and delivered.
During the late hours of The Game Awards 2023, surprising no one, the title would also scoop “Best RPG.” In the same segment, it also won the “Best Multiplayer” award and then immediately took “Player’s Voice.”
The incredible RPG has enchanted players worldwide. It wasn't a surprise, given the universal acclaim the Dungeons & Dragons-themed title received throughout 2023.
The final award of the night, after a stellar orchestral medley, was “Game of the Year.” This was also secured by Larian Studios’ stellar roleplaying game. The studio would dedicate the award to people who passed away during the course of development, as this was a game made during COVID.
2023 was a year that was positively stacked with incredible games. One could easily make an argument for any of the other nominees to have claimed GOTY, but it was Larian Studios who, with an intense amount of love, care, and attention to detail, brought a tabletop setting to life with the third installment of the popular CRPG franchise.
Baldur's Gate 3 claimed a whopping six awards across the whole of The Game Awards 2023, which is more than any other game at the event. You can find all of the winners from the event here.
