Here’s how you can vote in The Game Awards 2023

Nominees have been announced for The Game Awards 2023, so you know what that means: it’s your turn to vote. This post details the various ways in which you can make your own personal vote count.

First, we’d suggest brushing up on the nominees and getting an idea of the titles you’d like to support. There’s no rush, either — voting is open now and will be so until 1.00 pm AEDT on December 7 here in Australia (6.00 pm PT in the USA).

Got all that? When you’re ready to actually vote, you can do so in a couple ways:

  1. Direct via The Game Awards’ website
  2. Using Discord and the TGA Voting Bot

According to The Game Awards, “winners are determined by a blended vote between the voting jury (90%) and public fan voting (10%).” And if you’re curious as to why some games are (or aren’t) on the nominees list, The Game Awards reminds us that “games eligible for The Game Awards this year must be available for public consumption on or before Friday, November 17, 2023 at 9pm PT.”

That time corresponds to 4.00 pm AEDT on 18 November — we’ve got a listing of November and December releases here just to refresh your memory.

“Titles that are released after this date will be eligible for The Game Awards ceremony in 2024. (Similarly, games that were released on or after November 18, 2022 are first eligible for this year’s awards),” The Game Awards organisers continued.

The Game Awards 2023 will livestream from Los Angeles to Australia on 8 December; Stevivor is proud to yet again feature on the awards show’s jury.
