There are certainly big boots to fill with Baldur’s Gate 3 taking a slew of prestigious awards last year. But Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 has eleven nominations, leading the pack.
It certainly has stiff competition, though, from titles such as Astro Bot and Still Wakes the Deep, which both have eight nominations apiece.Our very own RadioTimes.com Gaming Editor Rob Leane is our boots on the ground at the red carpet, so keep your eyes peeled on the Radio Times Gaming YouTube Channel and TikTok for exclusive upcoming interview shenanigans.

You can check out the interview on our podcast called ‘One More Life’.Wang told us: “It’s always a tough balance to strike with awards, you know, because you’re there to honour people, but it’s always fun to roast people a bit, too. And so I’ll be looking to some of the great examples of that for inspiration.
“So it’ll be a bit roasty, maybe, if I learn enough about the attendees, but it’ll also be a celebration of all their wonderful work, of course.”BAFTA Games Awards 2025 nominees: Full list of winners and nominated gamesThe full BAFTA Games Awards 2025 longlist, ordered by the most recent award, is as follows (thanks, BAFTA!):Performer in a Leading RoleAlec Newman as Cameron ‘Caz’ McLeary in Still Wakes the Deep – WINNERHumberly González as Kay Vess in Star Wars OutlawsIsabella Inchbald as Indika in INDIKALuke Roberts as James Sunderland in SILENT HILL 2Melina Juergens as Senua in Senua’s Saga: Hellblade IIY’lan Noel as Troy Marshall in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6MusicAstro BotBlack Myth: WukongFINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTHHelldivers 2 – WINNERSenua’s Saga: Hellblade IIStar Wars OutlawsBAFTA Fellowship AwardThe BAFTA Fellowship Award was awarded to Japanese composer Yoko Shimomura, who has been the talent behind the scores to games such as Street Fighter, Super Mario, Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy.Debut GameANIMAL WELLBalatro – WINNERPacific DriveThe Plucky SquireTales of Kenzera: ZAUThank Goodness You’re HereGame DesignANIMAL WELLAstro Bot – WINNERBalatroHelldivers 2The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of WisdomTactical Breach WizardsArtistic AchievementAstro BotBlack Myth: WukongHarold HalibutNeva – WINNERSenua’s Saga: Hellblade IIStill Wakes the DeepPerformer in a Supporting RoleAbbi Greenland & Helen Goalen as The Furies in Senua’s Saga: Hellblade IIAldís Amah Hamilton as Ástríðr in Senua’s Saga: Hellblade IIJon Blyth as Big Ron in Thank Goodness You’re Here!Karen Dunbar as Finlay in Still Wakes the Deep – WINNERMatt Berry as Herbert the Gardener in Thank Goodness You’re Here!Michael Abubakar as Brodie in Still Wakes the DeepEvolving GameDiablo IVFINAL FANTASY XIV ONLINENo Man’s SkySea of ThievesVampire Survivors – WINNERWorld of WarcraftNarrativeBlack Myth: WukongDragon Age: The VeilguardFINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTHMetaphor: ReFantazio – WINNERSenua’s Saga: Hellblade IIStill Wakes the DeepBritish GameA Highland SongLEGO Horizon AdventuresPaper TrailSenua’s Saga: Hellblade IIStill Wakes the DeepThank Goodness You’re Here! – WINNER .
