After going digital last year due to the COVID-19, Geoff Keighley’s annual Game Awards show will be returning to an in-person event in 2021.
The Game Awards 2021 will be held on December 9th 2021 at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles as a “full-scale” in-person event, including the return of the Game Awards Orchestra. It will likely include the usual assortment of awards, world premieres, and other performances we’ve come to expect from the show.
