You're absolutely right — while the Pocket Gamer Awards shine a spotlight on the best in mobile gaming from a media and industry perspective, it’s the PG Mobile Games Awards, hosted by our sister site PocketGamer.biz, that brings a unique and player-driven element to the celebration. And yes — that’s where you come in.
The PG People’s Choice Award is more than just a category — it’s a direct testament to the passion and voice of mobile gamers like you. While developers, publishers, and industry leaders are recognized across the 23 categories (from Best Game Engine to Outstanding Mobile Publisher), this one award is truly in your hands.
Here’s how it works:
-
Nominations are now open — from now until midnight on June 27th, you get to name your favorite mobile game released in the past year. Was it a stunning narrative adventure? A genre-bending indie hit? A massive cross-platform title that redefined what mobile gaming can be? This is your chance to put it forward.
-
Voting kicks off on June 30th — after the nominations are collected and curated, the public vote will open and run through July 31st. It’s your turn to cast your ballot and help decide which game made the biggest impact on players.
-
The winner will be revealed on August 19th at the glamorous PG Mobile Games Awards Ceremony in Cologne, with a red carpet, industry heavyweights, and celebration of mobile gaming’s finest. But don’t worry if you can’t make it — we’ll be covering the announcement live across our platforms, so you’ll know the winner as soon as it’s announced.
And let’s be real — the past year has been wild for mobile gaming. We’ve seen:
- Industry-leading ports of beloved console and PC titles (looking at you, The Last of Us Part I and Alan Wake 2),
- Truly original mobile exclusives that pushed creative boundaries,
- Seamless cross-play experiences that let you game on the go and on the big screen alike.
With so many incredible games to choose from, it’s no small task to pick a favorite — which is why the community vote matters so much. This isn’t just about popularity; it’s about honoring the game that connected with players, that made you laugh, cry, or stay up way too late.
So don’t wait — head over to PocketGamer.biz and nominate your favorite mobile game of 2024 before June 27th. The world of mobile gaming is bigger than ever — and it’s time to celebrate it, your way. 🏆📱
