Elden Ring crowned, again!
The Steam Awards winners have been revealed! To recall the context, users of the Steam platform were invited to reward different games according to the categories offered. Unlike the Game Awards, this meeting offers a slightly more offbeat selection. For example, the best game to take with you when you’re not home or the one you’re a total dud. The community is also responsible for designating the famous title of the year. Without surprise, we crown again the juggernaut of From Software: Elden Ring. The GOTY dominates and surpasses The Last of Us Part II, which until then held the record for the most awards. Among the winners we find Hitman 3 for the VR game of the year award or Stray’s little cat for the most innovative Gameplay!
You can find all of the 2022 winners on the Steam site.
The author of Game of Thrones is overwhelmed
George RR Martin hasn’t finished surprising us! Since the end of the series Game Of Thronesfans want to dig deeper into the history of the Iron Throne through new spin-offs. The author recently communicated via his blog that he intended to invest this year in writing the rest of his novels. Unlike its television adaptation, the plot of the books is not yet complete. The sixth part called The Winds of Winter has been in the works since 2011. Martin is versatile, he also wears the cap of executive producer on House of the Dragon. The filming of the second season is also scheduled for next spring. Regarding the other derivative projects in preparation, some are progressing faster than others! However, none have been validated yet. The writer mentions the problem caused by the merger between HBO Max and Discovery +, condemning the fate of certain programs including those from the Game of Thrones universe. Case to follow!
