Pocket Gamer Awards 2024 winners and game of the year announced

The Pocket Gamer Awards 2024 winners are finally here, following two months of nominations and voting! While many anticipated winners took the stage, a few surprises emerged in the public-voted categories. This year's mobile gaming landscape has been exceptionally strong, and the voting results reflect that impressive growth.

The significant number of award-winning ports also highlights the increasing cross-platform interaction, with mobile now receiving high-quality adaptations of PC classics.
