Fall is fast approaching, which means winter is right around the corner. This means a lot of things to different people. Some celebrate Christmas while others get excited about Halloween, Thanksgiving, or other holidays I can't think of right now. For me? I love the cold. But there's something else to look forward to as the final months of the year arrive: the Pocket Gamer Awards 2024.
Yep, my peculiar preamble was to announce that we’ll once again be hosting our annual PGA to celebrate the latest and greatest in mobile gaming. And not only that, we know that gaming doesn’t exist in convenient 365-day blocks. So, you can also expect a few categories to pay homage to games that remain relevant in 2024 along with a look into the future because it’s nice to look ahead to things.
There’s nothing happening yet, though we’ll have more to announce soon. For now, we just want to let you know, create some buzz, and allow you to put on your thinking caps. The reason? Because while we host the awards, the winners are chosen entirely by you, our readers! So think about what struck you across genres this year, so you’ll be ready to go when the nominations open.
This awards phase will last a month, giving everyone time to cast their votes. After that, we’ll open the voting, which will, again, last a month. We at Pocket Gamer are big fans of four-week periods. During that window, you can gather your friends and other fans of your favorite games to vote. Likewise, all the developers reading this encourage players to rate your game.
After that, we'll be announcing all the winners in a glorious, yet-to-be-decided way. It's a lovely way to end the year celebrating all that's good, so I hope you'll join us. In the meantime, feel free to watch last year's video above.
