The Game Awards 2020, acara tahunan yang dipimpin oleh Geoff Keighley di mana penggemar game di seluruh dunia berkumpul untuk menonton teaser dan trailer game baru, akan digelar pada 10 Desember 2020.
Daftar lengkap nominasi telah terungkap. Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Doom Eternal, Final Fantasy VII Remake, Ghost of Tsushima, Hades, dan The Last of Us Part 2 semuanya bersaing untuk mendapatkan predikat Game of The Year, sementara Sony Interactive Entertainment memimpin sebagai penerbit dengan nominasi terbanyak.
Acara tahun lalu mencapai 50 juta penonton, dengan jumlah penonton bersamaan lebih dari 7,7 juta. Tapi, untuk tahun ini acaranya digelar virtual karena pandemi COVID-19, dan akan menampilkan presentasi penghargaan langsung, pertunjukan musik, dan pengumuman pertandingan perdana dunia yang spektakuler.

Nominasi untuk The Game Awards dipilih oleh juri internasional di lebih dari 95 media global dan outlet influencer melalui surat suara rahasia, yang kemudian dikumpulkan ke dalam lima pilihan teratas per kategori.
