Resident Evil Requiem took the top honor at this year's Golden Joystick Awards, winning Ultimate Game of the Year. The title earned 17% of the public vote for the category, narrowly beating Phantom Blade Zero at 16% and Crimson Desert at 15%.

Capcom received six awards in total, including Studio of the Year. Angela Sant'Albano, who played protagonist Grace Ashcroft in Requiem, won Best Lead Performer. The game also won Best Game Trailer for its short film starring Maika Monroe, as well as Console Game of the Year.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword won Best Audio Design. No first-party Nintendo games received awards, as Ocarina of Time launched too late to be eligible for this year's ceremony.
