Rumours had been flying. Hints had been dropped. Anticipation ahead of The Game Awards 2022 was pretty high, despite the fact that the show was slated to be shorted this year than the last. As the dust settles though, I think most would agree that the TGA’s in 2022 were a resounding success.
That’s especially true for the big winner of the night – God of War Ragnarok, Elden Ring and Stray – but for us viewers too. We saw new trailers dropping for Tekken 8 & Jedi Survivor and the announcement of Crime Boss: Rockay City & Death Stranding 2.
This all kicked off a little earlier in the day (or night, if you’re in the UK like I am) with the Wholesome Games Snack to celebrate The Game Awards. It’s only 20 minutes long but it’s worth a look to get new glimpses of Way To The Woods and to see the announcement of the promising Europa.
- Games that appeared in the Wholesome Snack: The Game Awards Edition in order of appearance:
- Mail Time – a 3D platformer about delivering mail in a cutesy world.
- Mineko’s Night Market – A life sim game cum adventure game with a cool art style.
- A Most Extraordinary Gnome – A platformer about a Gnome that looks like a lot of fun.
- Spirittea – Like if Stardew Valley included spirits to help instead of villagers.
- Fea Farm – A fantasy farming game.
- Way To The Woods – Play as a magical Deer who’s protecting its offspring while on a journey.
- Tchia – An adventure game based on New Caledonian culture and mythologies.
- Loddlenaut – A charming game about cleaning up an alien ocean.
- Blanc – A co-op title with an arresting art style.
- Tiny Glade – A creation game where you craft castles within little glades.
- Bits & Bops – A rhythm game that’s now live on Kickstarter.
- Distant Bloom – An exploration and alien life sim game where you resurrect a dead planet.
- Valley Peaks – A charming climbing and exploration title.
- Europa – The ‘World Premier’ of a gorgeous exploration game.
Before the main Game Awards began though, we had the “opening act”, another pre-show. Thankfully, it had plenty of announcements.
