The Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences (AIAS), the video game industry’s professional trade organization representing over 30,000 development and creative members, has opened submissions for its 23rd Annual D.I.C.E. Awards (#DICEAwards). The D.I.C.E. Awards (Design, Innovate, Communicate, Entertain) serve to recognize excellence among peers currently working in games. The award ceremony will close the three-day D.I.C.E. Summit, on the evening of Thursday, February 13th at the Aria Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.

Every year, the D.I.C.E. Awards bestows honors for particular areas of craft in addition to the genre categories that define the year in games. This past year, IGN hosted the 2019 D.I.C.E. Summit and Awards across six major platforms (+ OTT and apps), garnering almost 2mm video views.

Some highlights include recognition for the best in Art, Animation, Story, Music, Game Design and Game Direction as well as looking at emerging technologies such as Immersive Reality. The evening culminates with the Academy’s top honor, Game of the Year (GOTY). This award celebrates a single title that stands above every other game released with the strength of its craft, depth and innovation. Previous Game of the Year winners include: God of War (2019), The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (2018), Overwatch (2017), Fallout 4 (2016), and Dragon Age: Inquisition (2015).
