DICE-palkintoehdokkaat julkistettiin: suomalainen Returnal näkyvästi mukana

The Game Awardsin ohella DICE Awards on niitä isoimpia pystejä, joita pelien kehittäjät haluavat vitriineihinsä sijoittaa - ehkä jopa isompi, sillä voittajat riippuvat pelialalla työskentelevien antamista äänistä. Eniten ehdokkuuksia keräsivät Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart sekä Deathloop, mutta myös Housemarquen Returnal esiintyy mukavan monessa kategoriassa. Palkintogaala nähdään 24. helmikuuta.
