Source: PlayStation<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Astro Bot, developed by Team Asobi and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment, was crowned game of the year for 2024. The game managed to beat the likes of Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth, Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, Balatro, Metaphor: ReFantazio, and Black Myth: Wukong.<\/p>\n<p>Although considered a top contender among this year&#8217;s nominees and winning several awards, the declaration of Astro Bot&#8217;s victory still came as a surprise to many viewers during and after the livestream.<\/p>\n<p>Astro Bot was considered to be in contention with Black Myth: Wukong, the fan favorite that won the Player&#8217;s Choice award &#8211; a category decided entirely by the public vote.<\/p>\n<p>The Game Awards voting for GOTY is mostly decided by a panel of top gaming outlets, which influence 95% of the vote. There are many compelling arguments for why Astro Bot was the top choice for the majority of critics.<\/p>\n<p>Although not as popular as Black Myth: Wukong, which broke an all-time peak of 2 million concurrent players on Steam, Astro Bot is a quality platformer that celebrates the history of gaming.<\/p>\n<p>It seems fitting then that the game that features both classic and modern IP and serves to commemorate PlayStation&#8217;s 30th anniversary would take home the GOTY win. With stunning graphics and animations, intuitive use of the DualSense controller, and acknowledgments of classic characters, Astro Bot is a title worth diving into.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"which_game_won_the_most_awards\">Which Game Won the Most Awards?<\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"su-note\"  style=\"border-color:#e5e54c;border-radius:3px;-moz-border-radius:3px;-webkit-border-radius:3px;\"><div class=\"su-note-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"background-color:#FFFF66;border-color:#ffffff;color:#333333;border-radius:3px;-moz-border-radius:3px;-webkit-border-radius:3px;\"><strong>Astro Bot Won Four Awards This Year<\/strong><\/div><\/div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_370247\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-370247\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/team-asobi-game-awards-2024_optimized.jpg\" alt=\"Team Asobi\/SIE gives an acceptance speech at The Game Awards 2024. \" width=\"1200\" height=\"629\" class=\"wp-image-370247 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/team-asobi-game-awards-2024_optimized.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/team-asobi-game-awards-2024_optimized-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/team-asobi-game-awards-2024_optimized-1024x537.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/team-asobi-game-awards-2024_optimized-768x403.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-370247\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Team Asobi\/SIE gives an acceptance speech at The Game Awards 2024.
