While we are waiting for The Game Awards, other game award ceremonies are taking place now. And on 28 November, TIGA Awards took place, where Sony's game received the Game of the Year award.

Here's What We Know

Helldivers 2 was named the best game of 2024 at the TIGA Awards. The cooperative shooter about space marines became the most popular project in winter and early spring, gathering hundreds of thousands of players who went to destroy bugs on different planets.

And although interest in the game has declined over time, and some updates have caused players' dissatisfaction, given the emotions it has brought to many, Helldivers 2 deserves this award.

  • The gg editorial team was satisfied with the game and gave it a 4.4/5 rating. This is an attraction that you want to come back to again and again. Sometimes it's crazy, sometimes it makes you laugh, sometimes it's tense because of the number of enemies on the screen, but it's the range of emotions that we love games for.
