Dispatch, Ghost of Yourei, and Kingdom Come: Deliverance II received large awards on the BAFTA Video games Awards 2026. However there have been additionally some surprises in true BAFTA model. For instance, it was sort of stunning that Ghost of Yourei beat out Claire Obscur: Expedition 33 for Finest Music. Daredevil star Charlie Cox did not get the possibility to make it large as Fench’s motion-capture performer who performed Claire Obscure’s Gustave (which he nearly definitely would have had he received Finest Supporting Actor). It went to Jeffrey Wright, who performed Chase on “Dispatch.” “Clair Obscur: Expedition 33” misplaced out to “Kingdom Come: Deliverance II” within the Finest Narrative class and to Microsoft’s “South of Midnight” within the “New Mental Property” class.
Nonetheless, I do not assume Sandfall Interactive shall be that depressed. Contemporary off an enormous win at The Sport Awards 2025, the place the French studio received Finest Debut Sport, Jennifer English continued her run by successful Finest Actor for her function as Mael in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. And naturally, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 received the largest award of the evening, Sport of the Yr. We do not know if there shall be one other winner.
Elsewhere, Revolt’s Atomfall received British Video games, Whats up Video games’ No Man’s Sky received Evolving Sport, and Embark’s Arc Raiders received Multiplayer.
