At last, after a long tally of staff and community polls, we are ready to proclaim the winners of our Wccftech Awards '22. These include the best games released in 2022 and the most anticipated ones coming in 2023, according to Wccftech editors and readers, respectively. For the first time, we'll provide data on exactly how many votes each nominee received.

　　Let's begin with the best games of 2022. FromSoftware's Elden Ring won five prizes (including best overall game from both staff and community), more than any other title. Other multi-winners of the Wccftech Awards '22 include God of War Ragnarok, Stray, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, Sifu, Total War: Warhammer III, and Gran Turismo 7; all of these games received two prizes as staff and community agreed on them winning their respective genre categories.
