These Are The Games Nominated For The 24th DICE Awards, Including This SEA Title

The DICE Awards games celebration show for 2021 is going to be a thing this 9th April (GMT+8), and with it are the nominees for this year.

First, let’s celebrate the fact that a Southeast Asian-made title made its way into the DICE Awards this year. Coffee Talk, a visual novel we recently elected as one of our best games of 2020, is nominated for Outstanding Achievement for an Independent Game alongside the following:

  • Hades
  • If Found…
  • Kentucky Route Zero: TV Edition
  • Noita

This is very stiff competition, if we’re being frank. But the fact that Toge Productions is nominated is a great cause for celebration, especially for a prestigious game awards show like this that isn’t reliant on shoving our faces with Mountain Dew and Doritos-type ads. Other highlights include:

  • 13 Sentinels nominated for the Outstanding Achievement in Story category.
  • Ori and the Will of the Wisps showing up in a few more categories, though not to the extent of The Last of Us Part 2 and Hades.
  • The Last of Us Part 2 took two slots in the Outstanding Achievement in Character category.
