The winners of the eleven Steam Awards 2022 categories have been finalized after the user votes were tallied on Valve's platform. Elden Ring is unsurprisingly the big winner with two prizes, including the most coveted Game of the Year award, while CD Projekt RED takes home the 'Labor of Love' award assigned to the most improved game for Cyberpunk 2077. Given that the game is scheduled to receive the big Phantom Liberty expansion later this year, there's a chance we might find it once again among the contenders for this award in the 2023 Steam Awards.

　　Here's the complete overview of this year's nominee and winners within each category.
