The world of Italian video games is preparing for a highly prestigious event: the Italian Video Game Awards 2024. The Association representing the video game industry in Italy, IIDEA, has announced the nominations for the twelfth edition of the award, which will be held on July 4th at the Cinema La Compagnia in Florence. This annual event, now consolidated in the calendar of Italian business events, continues to celebrate Made in Italy videogame excellence, recognizing emerging talents and industry veterans.
This year, the Italian Video Game Awards will reward the best games, professionals and development studios that have distinguished themselves in 2023. There are six categories up for grabs, some of which have been renewed compared to the last edition, including the Best Italian Video Game, Best First Film, and awards for the artistic components and the most engaging gaming experiences.
