God of War Ragnarök is frontrunner in 2023 DICE Award nominees

The Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences (AIAS) today announced the nominees for its 26th Annual D.I.C.E. Awards. The Awards, which will be held on February, honor “outstanding achievements” in games released in 2022. This year, God of War Ragnarök leads the pack with 12 nominations. Horizon Forbidden West follows with 8 nominations, and Elden Ring is third with 7.

The AIAS’s annual awards give awards based on the votes of its members, which currently number over 33,000, organized into peer panels. In terms of awards, it functions similarly to The Game Awards in terms of awards to different game genres and elements. The 2021 recipient of its Game of the Year Award was It Takes Two.
