Official voting is now over for 2018. The 2018 Game of the Year is Super Smash Bros Ultimate and the runner up is God of War.
Voting was extremely close for 2018 with SSBU just barely edging out God of War. God of War was recognized by the gaming community in 2018, but I think SSBU was ignored largely because it was a December release. (Some Game of the Year awards don't even consider December releases.) However, looking back it should be obvious just how monumental SSBU is. I personally think Ultimate is the right word for it, because I think it has surpassed every previous Smash game, and I also think Nintendo is going to have a hard top creating another fighting game that is equal to or better than SSBU. I would not be surprised if it remains the go to fighting game for most fighting game fans for many years to come.
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
