The Game Awards will reveal its 2026 nominees Tuesday
Geoff Keighley will present the list of contenders live on Nov. 17, three weeks before the Dec. 10 show in Los Angeles.
The Game Awards will name its 2026 nominees on Tuesday. The show confirmed on X that the list will be revealed live on Nov. 17, in a global special hosted by Geoff Keighley.
It starts at noon Eastern, which is 9 a.m. Pacific and 17:00 GMT. In Mexico City, which does not observe daylight saving time, it will be 11 a.m.
The list will show who is in the running for Game of the Year and the other categories. The awards themselves are not until Dec. 10, at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. The show's website says the ceremony will stream on all platforms, and until now it only promised nominees "in mid-November"; the exact day came from the X account.
A year ago the list also dropped on Nov. 17, and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 led it with 12 nominations. That number belongs to the last edition and says nothing about this year's.
The December ceremony already had other news: it will stream on Disney+ for the first time, at 18:30 in Mexico City.
