The 2024 Huawei AppGallery Awards have concluded, revealing some unexpected winners that are sure to generate buzz among mobile gaming enthusiasts. While the Pocket Gamer Awards arguably set the benchmark for mobile game accolades, the Huawei AppGallery Awards, now in their fifth year, offer a compelling alternative perspective.
Summoners War claimed the coveted Game of the Year award, hinting at the unique selection criteria employed by the Huawei AppGallery. The winners showcase a distinct departure from typical award show selections.
Here's a breakdown of the other category winners:
- Best Action Game: PUBG Mobile
- Best RPG Games: Hero Wars: Alliance, Epic Seven
- Best Strategy Games (SLG): Evony: The King's Return, World of Tanks Blitz
- Best Family Games: Candy Crush Saga, Gardenscapes
- Best Trending Games: Mecha Domination: Rampage, Tokyo Ghoul: Break the Chains
Beyond the App Store's Usual Suspects
Some of the choices might differ from personal preferences, reflecting a potential bias towards Western games with established fanbases in other award ceremonies. The Huawei AppGallery Awards, however, appear to favor titles popular in other global markets.
This diversity is a welcome addition to the mobile gaming awards landscape. With the rise of alternative app stores, the Huawei AppGallery Awards are poised to gain even greater recognition and influence.
