Once again, The Game Awards keeps maturing as a show, getting better and better with each year. The Green Day performance in particular was especially top-tier. Another aspect that amazed is the sustained quality of incredible games, developers, publishers, content creators and beyond that are a part of The Game Awards. There were some unbelievable announcements, including that The Wolf Among Us 2 is back on track, and that the next Xbox has been announced: the Xbox Series X.
