Black Myth: Wukong Dominates 2024 Steam Awards with Game of the Year Win

The action RPG from Game Science secured three awards, breaking Steam Awards records for most wins in a single year.

  • Black Myth: Wukong won Game of the Year, Best Game You Suck At, and Outstanding Story-Rich Game at the 2024 Steam Awards.
  • The Steam Awards are fully community-voted, with winners chosen by Steam users during Valve's annual holiday sales period.
  • Black Myth: Wukong surpassed previous records by winning three awards in a single year, a feat unmatched by past winners like Baldur’s Gate 3 and Cuphead.
  • The game’s popularity is attributed to its record-breaking player counts on Steam and its adaptation of the classic Chinese tale Journey to the West.
  • Other notable winners included Elden Ring for Labor of Love and Silent Hill 2 for Outstanding Visual Style, while Red Dead Redemption took Best Soundtrack despite its age.
