2025 Game Awards Seen as Worst Ever by 38% of Viewers

Disappointing Pace and Memorable Moments Missing at 2025 Game Awards

The Game Awards in Los Angeles last night disappointed many viewers. Host Geoff Keighley polled viewers on X about their thoughts on this year's show. Of nearly 380,000 respondents, 38% rated the show a "D" or lower. In contrast, almost half of last year's respondents gave the show an "A," but only 15% did so this year. Several attendees indicated that the pacing was off and the show lacked memorable moments, particularly criticizing the choice to close with a free-to-play hero shooter reveal. Despite the criticism, the event still drew a large online audience. One commenter on Keighley's post encapsulated the general sentiment: "Who thought a free-to-play hero shooter was a good way to end the show?"
