It seems Control and Death Stranding are destined to fight once again. After The Game Awards 2019, the 2020 DICE Awards and the upcoming 2020 GDC Awards (which may in fact be postponed), Remedy’s Control and Kojima Productions’ Death Stranding again lead the pack this year in nominations for the 2020 BAFTA Awards.
Both titles are nominated for eleven awards each, which is the most nominations since the BAFTA Awards began in 2004. Disco Elysium ranks up there with seven nominations, while Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and Luigi’s Mansion 3 have four nominations each.
For those disappointed that A Plague Tale: Innocence wasn’t given its due, it’s been nominated for Technical Achievement.
The winners will be announced on April 2, 2020, and you’ll be able to tune into BAFTA’s Facebook, Twitch, and YouTube channels to watch the show. Also at the show, Hideo Kojima will receive the BAFTA Fellowship on the night.
Head to the official BAFTA site to check out the rest of the nominees.
