Well, the results are in, and it looks like one honking bird has stolen the top spot!

Earlier, the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences (AIAS) awarded Untitled Goose Game with the honor of being their Game of the Year for 2019! As many readers will know, the game went viral with swathes of fan-art and parodies – thanks in part to its unique premise of controlling a mischievous goose.

Previously, the DICE Game of the Year Award only went to blockbuster hits like God of War (PS4), The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Switch), and Skyrim. This fact was not lost on the title’s developers House House, which pondered out loud about standing next to such great games:

Well it is well deserved at least for one simple reason; It was something totally fresh and new. Which becomes harder each and every year.
