2017 NG Awards nominees: Nordic GotY

Nordic Game of the Year
Nordic GotY – the most prestigious award of the show and highpoint of the 2017 Nordic Game Awards. A fun fact is that nearly all of the nominated studios have previously taken the stage at Nordic Game. This year, Playdead opens NG17 with an “insider” tech talk about their multiple award-winning title INSIDE (here), veteran hit-maker IO Interactive will delve into the AI of Hitman (here), Massive Entertainment CEO David Polfeldt joins legendary Japanese game designer Fumito Ueda in a much anticipated “fireside chat” (here), while both EA DICE and Owlboy creator Jo-Remi Madsen have spoken at past Nordic Game conferences.

Clash Royale, Supercell (FI)

Congratulations to all the nominees for the 2017 Nordic Game Awards. See you at the show!
