Pocket Gamer Awards 2024 winners and game of the year announced
The Pocket Gamer Awards 2024 winners are finally here, following two months of nominations and voting! While many anticipated winners claimed their spots, a few surprising choices emerged from the public vote. This year's mobile gaming landscape has been exceptionally strong, and the results truly reflect that.
This awards program has seen incredible growth since its inception in 2010, evolving from a single reader's choice category to the comprehensive celebration we see today. Having witnessed the nomination process from October onwards, it's clear this year marks a significant milestone. The high volume of votes is impressive, but more importantly, this year's winners showcase the breadth and depth of the mobile gaming industry.
The list includes titles from gaming giants like NetEase (with their Sony IP: Destiny), Tencent-backed SuperCell, and Scopely, alongside established publishers such as Konami and Bandai Namco. Indie darlings Rusty Lake and Emoak also shine brightly. The year has also seen a remarkable influx of successful ports, mirroring the trend of PC adaptations of mobile games, but in reverse. This is reflected in the impressive selection of award-winning ports.
Now, let's get to the winners:
