Voting Now Open for Players’ Choice Horror Game Award Category for The Horror Game Awards 2023

The Horror Game Awards 2023 have opened up voting for the last category for this year’s show: the Players’ Choice Horror Game Award. Fans can choose from a huge swath of titles released in the past year, from big names to the indies, with the 30 most popular nominations moving on to the first round of voting in October.

The nomination process for the Players’ Choice Award runs from now until September 29th. Click here to see the list of nominees.

First kicking off in 2022, The Horror Game Awards is the brainchild of YouTuber Phil Dickens aka AKblackandred and Will Penkeyman of Resident Evil Central. The aim of The Horror Game Awards is simple: to celebrate horror as one of the best genres in video games, and to recognize the year’s greatest horror games alongside the developers who make them.

Each member of the jury gets to nominate one game for each category they are a part of, with this year having a total of ten categories. Those nominations then go out to a public vote in early December, with the top three comprising the finalists for that category. The jury then picks a winner from the finalists through a preference vote.

The Horror Game Awards 2023 will air on December 16, live on YouTube.

Meanwhile, the second episode of the “Talking Terror” podcast has landed. This week, Phil Dickens and Will Penkeyman talk with James and Nathan from Malformation Games in regards to their upcoming retro Survival Horror title, Ground Zero.
