The D.I.C.E. awards have returned again this year, awarding developers for their hard work on some of the best games released last year. This time around, Hades takes home the GOTY trophy, and a bunch of PlayStation exclusives were also highlighted. 

As far as PlayStation exclusives go, Ghost of Tsushima, The Last of Us Part 2, Dreams, Final Fantasy VII Remake and Spider-Man: Miles Morales all won awards this year, marking another huge year for PlayStation. Half-Life: Alyx, Valve’s grand return to the Half-Life IP, also took away two awards. Nintendo went on to win Family Game of the Year thanks to Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Unfortunately, for the first time in 22 years of D.I.C.E., no one was inducted into the Hall of Fame.
