Just in time for the turn of the year, a number of prizes were also awarded on Steam. In particular, Black Myth: Wukong won big.
In the aftermath of the 2024 Game Awards, the lead developer of Black Myth: Wukong was still annoyed that he and his team didn’t win the prestigious Game of the Year award. Now the good man can still put his GotY award on the shelf, even if it’s not the one he actually intended.
At the Steam Awards 2024, Black Myth really cleaned up.The action-adventure game from Game Science won three awards. But other titles also had reason to celebrate. Let’s take a look at who won.
