One of gaming's biggest nights is here again

The Game Awards 2023 are underway, and Geoff Keighley and company have already delivered some big announcements in the opening moments of the show. Teases on social media for this year's show were not as abundant as they were in previous years, and without many expectations, the surprises have already begun. A remake of a 2013 cult hit was revealed first, followed by new games from Finji, Color Gray, and more.

Below, we're rounding up all of the big reveals, announcements, and trailers shown during The Game Awards. We'll continue to expand this as the night goes on, so stay tuned for all the major news from the event.
