Chalk up another win for Hades.
We’re continuing our game of the year (GOTY) awards for 2020 with honours for Best Direction.
Stevivor’s Best Direction of 2020
We’ve already named it as Best Indie title and Best Narrative of 2020, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the winner in this category was none other than Hades.
What could be boiled down to a fairly simple gameplay loop is boosted by strong characters, a masterful pacing of narrative and abilities and situations that keep players on their toes. The gameplay loop is also fun as hell.
Runners-up in this category include The Last of Us Part 2, Ghost of Tsushima, Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order and Microsoft Flight Simulator.
You can take a look at our full Stevivor GOTY 2020 Awards schedule below. Any guesses on what will make the cut ahead of our official announcements?
