While The Game Awards has come and gone, the gaming industry is not done celebrating the best video games released in 2023. The full list of nominees for the DICE Awards have been revealed and it looks like Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is leading the charge with a total of nine nominations. The awards ceremony will take place in Las Vegas between 13-15 February.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 seems to have racked up the most amount of nominations at the DICE Awards this year including Game of the Year. However, the competition is tight as it’s pitted against heavy-hitters like Baldur’s Gate 3, Super Mario Bros. Wonder and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom in numerous categories. The DICE Awards will be hosted by IGN’s Stella Chung and Kinda Funny’s Greg Miller.
