Den of Geek: 12 Game of the Year awards

Den of Geek is a website from United States, founded in 2012. It appears in this database with 12 Game of the Year picks across 9 award seasons (2015–2025); its most frequent pick was Elden Ring.

In the seasons tracked at full breadth, 6 of its 12 picks went to the game that won the season overall; the most recent was Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 in 2025.

Its pick furthest from the consensus was Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy in 2021, which finished No. 10 that season with 14 awards in total. Its earliest pick on record is Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, for 2015. 3 of its 12 picks were readers' votes rather than the editors' choice.

The original UK Den of Geek launched in 2007; the publication's own history says its US team launched the Stateside edition in 2012.

No qualifying US-edition overall GOTY verified before the supplied series begins 2015; 2018/2019 were best-games selections without a singular GOTY.

It is the first and last year this outlet appears in our award data — not necessarily its founding or closing date. An outlet may have existed longer, or simply skipped a year's award.
