The Keigh to success. Strap in, folks, because The Game Awards are almost upon us once again. Yes, following last year’s 10th anniversary special, Geoff Keighley is sending off 2025 with a bang — if by “bang” you mean a bunch of awards, some big reveals, and more than a few sponsored ads thrown in…
