DICE Awards: Horizon Zero Dawn si aggiudica dieci nomination

Lo riporta Game Industry. Sono state annunciate le candidature per il ventunesimo DICE Awards, e Horizon Zero Dawn è presente in ben dieci categorie, ed è quindi il titolo con più nomination di tutto il premio.

Sono 68 i giochi candidati, tutti usciti nell’arco del 2017, e Horizon Zero Dawn ha battuto altri titoli molto blasonati nel numero di categorie in cui è nominato. Questo ovviamente non vuol dire che spazzerà via la concerrenza vincendo in tutte le categorie ovviamente, non con titoli come The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild, presente in sei categorie, o Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice, Uncharted: The Lost Legacy e Cuphead, che intascano cinque nomination ciascuno, a lottare per i premi a loro volta.
