Pocket Gamer Awards 2024 winners and game of the year announced

The Pocket Gamer Awards 2024 winners have been announced after two months of nominations and voting! While some winners were anticipated, several unexpected titles triumphed in the public vote. This year's mobile gaming landscape was exceptionally strong, a fact clearly reflected in the results.

The awards journey, from the initial nominations in October to the final ceremony, has been remarkable. Not only did we receive an overwhelming number of votes, but for the first time, the winners truly represent the breadth and depth of the mobile gaming industry.

The winners list showcases a diverse range of developers and publishers, from gaming giants like NetEase (with their Sony IP: Destiny), Tencent-backed SuperCell, and Scopely, to established names such as Konami and Bandai Namco, and finally, beloved indie developers like Rusty Lake and Emoak. The significant number of award-winning ports also highlights the increasing cross-platform interaction, with mobile now receiving high-quality adaptations of PC classics.
