È un God of War sempre più pigliatutto: dopo aver arraffato la maggior parte dei premi nelle serate di gala a cui abbiamo assistito fino ad ora, sembra proprio che il titolo di Sony Santa Monica si stia preparando a recitare la parte del leone anche ai BAFTA Video Games Awards. Nelle scorse ore sono stati annunciati i candidati per le diverse categorie degli awards in questione, che vedono God of War tra i nominati per ben dieci statuette. Red Dead Redemption 2, altro grande successo del 2018, si è fermato a sei nomination.
