## The Game Awards Creator Hears Your Feedback --"Do We Always Get It Right? No"

Authored by gamespot.com

Speaking to The Game Business, Keighley said the introduction of the Game Changer award in 2024 was an initial attempt to address this.

Amir Satvat was given the prize for his work to support people who were laid off in the gaming industry.

Keighley hasn't said if this award is coming back in 2025, but it would be a glaring omission if it did not.

In any event, Keighley said walking the line between celebrating games and acknowledging current circumstances is no easy task.

"It's a very difficult needle to thread, because on one level, it is a celebration of the industry.

Keighley went on to say he feels a "weight" on his shoulders to do more because The Game Awards has such a large platform.

The Game Awards takes place on Thursday, December 11, beginning at 5 PM PT / 8 PM ET, with a pre-show set to begin 30 minutes prior. »
