Winners Emerge at 2024 Pocket Gamer Awards

The Pocket Gamer Awards 2024 winners have been unveiled following a two-month process of nominations and public voting. While some anticipated titles triumphed, several unexpected games also secured reader-voted awards. This year marks a record-breaking high point for mobile gaming, a fact clearly reflected in the enthusiastic public response and the quality of the winning titles.

This year's awards represent a significant milestone. The journey, starting with nominations in October, culminated in a spectacular awards ceremony. The sheer volume of votes underscores the passion within the mobile gaming community, but more importantly, this year's winners showcase a diverse and representative selection from across the industry.

The list boasts a compelling mix of giants (NetEase, Sony's Destiny, Tencent-backed Supercell, Scopely) alongside established publishers (Konami, Bandai Namco) and celebrated indie developers (Rusty Lake, Emoak). The rise of successful ports is also notable, mirroring the trend of PC games adapted for mobile, but this year, many excellent mobile experiences have successfully transitioned to PC platforms. This is reflected in the strong showing of ported games among the award winners.
