The Game Awards 2025 have come and gone, and the heavyweight favourite, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, did not disappoint. It went home with the most wins of the night, including some of the bigger awards like Best Art Direction, Best Score and Music, Best Narrative, Best Game Direction, and of course, Game of the Year.

Because Clair Obscur came into the show with 12 nominations (10 if you only count one of its three Best Performance nominations), and it won most of its categories, there weren't really other standout games. It was Clair Obscur's night, through and through, as it nearly swept The Game Awards, winning 9 out of 10 possible awards.

Battlefield 6 was the only game to beat Clair Obscur, taking home Best Audio Design and keeping Sandfall Interactive from the full sweep. That said, it technically also lost to Wuthering Waves in the Player's Voice category, so make that 9 of 11 possible wins.

Hollow Knight Silksong was able to walk away with one win, and South of Midnight picked up a win as well. ARC Raiders also took home the award for Best Multiplayer game, and No Man's Sky grabbed Best Ongoing game. And while the more exciting part of the night for Larian Studios was its reveal of Divinity, it also took home Best Community Support for Baldur's Gate 3.

Here's the full list of winners from tonight's The Game Awards 2025.
