The G🥂ame Awards 2020 have an official date and location - three locations, as a matter of fact.

The event's official Twitter account made ꦉthe announcement, confirming that the annual celebration ✃of video games will air on Thursday, December 10, with live online broadcasts from Los Angeles, London, and Tokyo. TGA 2020 will also introduce a new Innovation in Accessibility award for software and hardware that make games easier to play for more people.

The event will eschew live audiences this year as you'd expect, but executive producer Geoff Keighley confirmed that it will still feature the usual assortment of awards, announcements, and musical performances. While Keighley said he was initially hesitant about whether the show would be able to feature the usual headline-grabbing new꧅ game reveals and trailer drops in light of the pandemic, ꦅhe said industry leaders told him they'd have plenty to contribute.

"The thing that I'm worried about more than anything is that - there's so much anticipation for the show - is that we don't have big games to announce to the fans, then that becomes a disappointment too," Keighley said. "So I talked🍸 to all the game companies and they're like 'no, we've got great content to kind of show fans around games,' and they're really excited to show that."

The team behind The Game Awards is watching how other awards shows have handled their tranꦛsitions to social-distancing friendly presentations, and Keighley says they're taking notes on what works well and what doesn't.

In case you're wondering, Geoff Keighley isn't sure about whether 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Cyberpunk 2077 will be eligible for consideration this year either, since it๊'s coming out just 3 weeks before the show: "we're still figuring out how tha𒐪t's going to work out".

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in ಌvideo games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and now I'm a staff writer here at GamesRadar.
