GOTY Awards To Be Streamed In Massive New Ways This December

A big partnership with a major streaming service, along with a couple new ways to watch the live event later this year. The nominees for the upcoming GOTY Awards are set to be revealed on Tuesday, November 17th. Front runners include GTA6, Resident Evil, The Legend of Zelda, and Control Resonant among others.

But that isn’t all the news we got as ahead of the reveal the show announced new streaming partners. Starting on thursday, December 10, starting at 7:30 p.m. ET/4:30 p.m.

PT, the show announced that Disney+ will be hosting the event live. Disney notes that the event being hosted live celebrates their addition of new gaming inspired content including Disney Twisted-Wonderland: The Animation and the upcoming original anime series DEATH STRANDING ISOLATIONS.

That isn’t the only new addition either. The show announced that streaming will also be available through Roblox, which marks the first time the game has ever streamed an outside event. The event will take place in “The Block” which is the livestreaming area of the game, and players will be able to cast votes leading up to the show and during for a special segment.

The event is exclusive to 18+ ages. Outside of Roblox, it is also being reported by Variety that the event will be livestreamed to all PS5 consoles via “live TV.” The section can be found by scrolling over to the media tab of your PS5 and selecting the live TV icon. It functions similar to the dozens of other free TV apps (IE Pluto) and will ask you to sign in using your PlayStation account.

After doing so, the event will be available when live on December 10th. It was stated that the show is not looking for an exclusive partner and will continue to look for “additive” deals similar to the show being streamed on Amazon Prime last year. This year, along with the 3 new services, the show will again be streamed on YouTube, Twitch, Steam, TikTok Live, X, Kick, Facebook and Instagram Live in the U.S.
