The nominations for the Golden Joystick Awards 2025 are now live, with players being able to vote across 21 categories, and while some years are tight races between the games that have made the most impact before the end of the year, this year has a clear frontrunner in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.

Other big titles with multiple nominations include Hollow Knight
