The Steam Awards 2018: Winners List

On Friday, Steam premiered their annual list of winners in the user-decided Steam Awards. This year was special though, as it was the first year where Steam have held a visual ceremony to celebrate the winners (and nominees). Nobody knew what to expect but some hinted at the possibility of some game reveals. In the end, we received an 18 minute stream full of flashy visuals and thank yous from the winners.

It was complete with a live chat and was exclusively streamed to Steam’s broadcasting service, which got a makeover in the latest update to the digital storefront.
