Game of the Year 2024 nominees

Here are the games that are nominated for the GOTY 2024:

• Astro Bot
• Balatro
• Black Myth: Wukong
• Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree
• Final Fantasy VII Rebirth

Many fans have expressed their displeasure with the inclusion of Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree in this category because it is a DLC. However, there is a very strong chance that this DLC will win the GOTY 2024.
