There was a celebratory atmosphere at the BAFTA Games Awards on London's windy Southbank last night. Even before the God of War Ragnarök team picked up six awards, you could sense their excitement at showing up with a record-breaking 14 nominations.
Speaking to RadioTimes.com on red carpet, Freya actress Danielle Bisutti expressed what it meant to her to have quite so many noms for the game. «Well, it's just a godsend,» she said. «God of War has unequivocally changed my life, and has touched so many lives with this franchise.»
Atreus actor Sunny Suljic was visibly buzzing, as well. He told us: «Dude, it's nerve-wracking. But I don't know, I'm enjoying myself. I'm having a good time talking to all the nominees and just trying to enjoy myself as much as I can.»
As well as nabbing the public-voted EE Game of the Year award, God of War Ragnarök picked up the gongs for Animation, Audio Achievement, Music, Performer in a Supporting Role (Laya Deleon Hayes as Angrboda) and Performer in a Leading Role (Christopher Judge as Kratos).
With the game clearly being a smash hit success, it's hard not to wonder what the future could hold for God of War as a franchise, both in terms of potential sequel games and the already promised Amazon Prime Video God of War TV show.
