GTA 6 wins its first award before release at The Game Awards 2024: 'Most anticipated game'

GTA VI has already secured an award. No disrespect to Rockstar Games' highly anticipated project, but it's undeniably amusing that the new GTA is earning accolades even before its release.

At the very least, this highlights just how eagerly the gaming community is awaiting the launch of the title.

The award GTA VI received is likely already known to most, but for anyone who missed The Game Awards 2024, it was honored as the most anticipated game.

While facing tough competition, it came as no surprise that GTA VI claimed victory in this category.

However, for the GTA fanbase, the excitement of this award win is quickly overshadowed by whispers of a possible delay, casting a shadow over the celebration.

Despite claiming the award, no one was present to accept it when the announcement was made.

As soon as the audience's claps began, Geoff moved right on to the next category winners.

Even though Rockstar didn’t take the opportunity to comment on this achievement, it doesn’t diminish how extraordinary and amusing this particular honor is.

Beyond GTA VI winning its first award (which remains amusing), this year’s event delivered some other major reveals.

For fans of ultra-challenging gameplay, there’s Elden Ring: Nightreign, a new standalone adventure.

Additionally, the Borderlands 4 trailer premiered, along with the first glimpse of Ciri in The Witcher 4.
