The Italian Game Awards, which celebrate the best of Italy’s games industry, will be streamed live on Tuesday from 6pm BST / 1pm ET.
VGC is partnering with the Italian Interactive Digital Entertainment Association (IIDEA) to bring the ceremony to an English-speaking audience.
The Italian Video Game Awards ceremony will see winners announced in five categories: Best Italian Game, Best Innovation, Best Italian Debut, Outstanding Italian Company and Outstanding Individual Contribution.
Viewers will also be shown examples of what the Italian video game industry has to offer, including some never-before-seen trailers.

“The Italian video game industry is brimming with creativity and innovation, and it’s an honour to be able to share that with the world. Having Aoife and Elle join us as hosts is a true delight and I’m sure we’re in for a brilliant show.”
