Supermassive Games’ smartphone-powered crime thriller Hidden Agenda is quietly starting to scoop up a sizeable number of awards, having netted the casual game gong at Gamescom 2017 – upon landing a similar statue at E3 2017. In truth, this was a lean year for PlayStation 4 winners at the German convention, with Super Mario Odyssey understandably taking the top pot.
Assassin’s Creed Origins was deemed the best game on the PS4, which bodes well for Ubisoft’s upcoming Egyptian adventure. Meanwhile, the anticipated Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom ran away with the best role-playing release, while Destiny 2 scored best multiplayer game. We’ve included all of the winners below.

Uh oh. No Gran Turismo Sport.
Hidden Agenda looks great - I love the concept of this game and think it's a pretty awesome way of getting the wife to sit down and get some game time with me (she's already addicted to the ID Channel).
i never get these things, both AC Origins and Shadow of War are multiplatform, on both PS4 & XB1 yet one wins PS4 game and the other XB1 game, surely 1 of them should win both?
@FullbringIchigo And Ni No Kuni 2 is better then assasins creed.
@lacerz Forza probably got best racer cos it was on X so all the cough journalists would have been like "4K IS BEST EVES BRO"!!
@lacerz because it's great.
"Best Console Game X" why are they choosing multiplatform games for those? kind of defeats the purpose of having these categories at all. but they probably couldn't find enough nominations for xbox one exclusives LOL
@FullbringIchigo I thought that was weird, too.
Best sports game - PES - LOVE IT! 💪💪
