The Game Awards is set to reveal the many games up for awards at this year’s edition of the show in a new live stream occurring next week.
With The Game Awards 2020 set to transpire in a little under a month at this point, the show’s host and producer has now informed us of when the nominees for this year’s event will be revealed.
Over on Twitter today, Geoff Keighley announced that this year’s nominees for The Game Awards will be revealed one week from today on Wednesday, November 18. The titles that will be announced to be in the running for the show’s many categories will be unveiled via a live stream, which has become commonplace in recent years. This stream will kick off at 12:00pm EDT/9:00am PDT for those looking to tune-in as it occurs.

It remains to see what games will end up snagging the most nominations in 2020, but Keighley himself has previously reiterated that games released outside of this calendar year can still be up to win certain honors. In addition, the highly-anticipated release of Cyberpunk 2077 has been ruled out to be in consideration after the game’s most recent delay to December.
Speaking of Cyberpunk 2077, both the latest title from CD Projekt Red and The Game Awards itself will be landing on the same day next month. This year’s show will kick off on December 10 and will feature a new accessibility category among other changes.
