What you need to know

  • The Game Awards honor the video game industry every year.
  • In 2019, the event takes place on December 12.
  • Expect a lot of reveals and other surprises from the two to three-hour show.
  • When to watch The Game Awards 2019 will be revealed at a later time.

The Game Awards is a yearly event that honors the video game industry's best titles. Not only are accolades given out, but new titles are also revealed. This year, The Game Awards 2019 will take place on December 12 at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, California. New games will be revealed, as well as gameplay for popular upcoming titles.

The event goes on for a couple of hours and features a lot of hilarious moments. Hopefully, this year there will be plenty of surprises along those lines. It's the unscripted moments that make The Game Awards shine in my opinion. Since it's at the Microsoft Theater, let's hope that some new Xbox games are also announced, or maybe what Project Scarlett, Microsoft's upcoming console that's four times as powerful as the Xbox One X, looks like. Only time will tell, but be sure to tune in.
