Pelimaailman Oscareiksikin rummutetut D.I.C.E. Awards -palkinnot jaettiin jo 22. kertaa pari päivää sitten.
D.I.C.E. Awards -gaalan suurin voittaja oli ainakin palkintojen määrässä mitaten Sony Santa Monican God of War. Kratoksen hurmeinen seikkailu vei muun muassa parhaan pelin, parhaan tarinan sekä parhaan musiikin pystit. Kunnioitettavasti ehdokaslistalle päätynyt Wreckfest sen sijaan jäi Forza Horizon 4:n jalkoihin parhaan autopelin kategoriassa. Suureksi voittajaksi voi lukea myös indiepeli Celesten, joka voitti parhaiden indie- ja toimintapelien palkinnot.
AIAS Hall of Fame -listalle pääsi tänä vuonna Halo-sarjan parissa ja 343 Industriesin peräsimessä hääräilevä Bonnie Ross.
