Not to be confused with “Best Action Game” and “Best Adventure Game.”
Today, famous (and occasionally infamous) Japanese gaming outlet Famitsu revealed their game awards for 2022, and while Sonic Frontiers was only nominated for a single category, it won “Best Action-Adventure Game” from among God of War: Ragnarok and Horizon Forbidden West.
Other winners include Splatoon 3 for “Best Action Game,” The Centennial Case: A Shijima Story for “Best Adventure Game,” Final Fantasy XIV for “Best Online Game,” Xenoblade Chronicles 3 for “Best RPG,” and Elden Ring for “Game of the Year.”
