The 2021 BAFTA Games Awards took place yesterday. A total of 18 awards were distributed from a range of categories. Of those, 17 awards were decided by a panel of judges and one by the people. There were some surprises about who won, however, every award win was well deserved.

As it was previously revealed, The Last of Us Part 2 and Ghost of Tsushima led 2021 BAFTA with the most nominations but they didn’t win the most awards. This year’s BAFTA was led by the indie game, Hades. The game won five awards, including the Best Game award, surprising many fans as they thought it would go to TLOU2.

The Last of Us Part 2 was nominated for 13 awards and won three awards, including the player-voted GOTY. It also won awards for Animation and Leading Performance. Sackboy: A Big Adventure took two awards which are the British Game award and Family Game award. Ghost of Tsushima only won one award for Audio Achievement.

What surprised me the most was that Spider-Man: Miles Morales won the Music award, defeating the amazing soundtrack of TLOU2 and Hades. Doom Eternal wasn’t even nominated, and that just feels wrong.

Anyway, BAFTA Game Awards is not the only important award function for games. Just last November, The Game Awards 2020 took place and you can check out our previous article to know who won the most awards there.
