Il premio più ambito nel settore del mondo videoludico, il GOTY o meglio il Game of the Year, se lo aggiudica The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Una vittoria senza pari per la CD Projekt RED che si porta a casa ben tre premi, aggiungendo a Gioco dell’Anno anche “Miglior RPG” e “Sviluppatori dell’anno“.
Una soddisfazione per lo studio polacco, a dimostrazione che la qualità non è sempre sinonimo di grandi marchi. I ringraziamenti da parte del team di sviluppatori sono arrivati prontamente via social; potete trovarli QUI.
