    Outer Wilds never got a game award. I mean, I had to go look it up just now just in case, because the game awards are about as on my radar as the ocars.

      also, in 2020, they had a VR/AR category for Alyx, and then never had the category again.

      VR's killer app killed it.

        They'd have to make it a lifetime award, good VR games take at least a year to get polished/shine though all the garbage VR apps.

        According to steam charts, only like 2 of the top 100 VR games by current player count came out in 2023; a VR Tarkov clone and Gorilla Tag.
