DICE Awards 2024: Indiana Jones leads the nominations

The DICE Awards 2024 are the gaming industry’s next important awards – and Indiana Jones is a hot candidate for many titles.

To be nominated for The Game Awards 2024 in December, the excellent Indiana Jones and the Great Circle was simply released too late in the year. The fact that it could have been enough to reach the top is now clear from the nominations for the DICE Awards 2024 – the next important awards ceremony in the games industry.

The action-adventure game from MachineGames was nominated for the title in a whopping six different categories. This means that the Bethesda work has just as many nominations as its well-known and busy competitors Astro Bot and Helldivers 2. All three titles are consequently also nominated for Game of the Year – alongside Balatro and Black Myth: Wukong as other competitors.

The award ceremony will take place as part of the 2025 DICE Summit on February 13, 2025 in Las Vegas. All nominations at a glance:
