The Games Awards 2024 grows 31% to record 154M livestreams

The Game Awards announced its 10th anniversary show broke viewership records with an estimated 154 million global livestreams, up 31%.

As I noted from attending the event at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, show organizer Geoff Keighley redeemed himself compared with criticism a year ago. Some social media contrarians found fault with Satvat and wrongly accused him of various evils like “creating a spreadsheet,” self-promotion and participating in perpetrating the layoffs. With appearances from the biggest names in entertainment and video games including Aaron Paul, Ella Purnell, Harrison Ford, Hideo Kojima, Isabella Merced, Khalid, Laura Bailey, Sam Lake, Shannon Woodward, Statler + Waldorf, Swen Vincke, Sydnee Goodman, Todd Howard and Troy Baker, The Game Awards once again brought together the industry for a one-of-a-kind night of celebrations.
