This page is a dated record of the confirmed nominations and the state of the public vote, not of any result.
The Blood of Dawnwalker has been nominated at the 2026 Golden Joystick Awards. Rebel Wolves and Bandai Namco announced the nominations in official Steam community posts in late September and late October 2026, and asked players to vote.
The nominations
Official announcements name three category nominations:
- Best Storytelling
- PC Game of the Year
- Best Lead Performer — Will de Renzy-Martin, for Coen
A later official post confirmed an Ultimate Game of the Year nomination as well, linking to the public vote. Results had not been announced at the time of writing; this page records the nomination and voting state only, and will be updated if a win is confirmed.
How to vote
Voting is run by the Golden Joystick Awards organisers, not by Rebel Wolves — use the official voting site. No account on this wiki or in-game action is involved, and the vote is not tied to a save file.
Why it matters for players
Awards coverage tends to bring a second wave of new players to a game about two months after launch. If you are arriving from the nominations, the Update 1.1 notes cover the respec, the reworked Story difficulty and the 1,100+ fixes already shipped, and the beginner FAQ covers the 30-day clock that most often surprises new players.
