El ganador a mejor juego del año 2017 en los SXSW Gaming Awards ha sido Uncharted 4 de Naughty Dog’s, además de el premio a la excelencia narrativa, al personaje mas memorable,a las mejores animaciones y los efectos visuales . Un premio bien merecido para un «cierre» de una de las sagas mas importantes de los videojuegos en los últimos tiempos.
Uncharted 4 competía en la misma categoría contra Dishonored 2, Doom, Overwatch y Titanfall 2; cuatro monstruos que no se lo habrán puesto nada fácil al jurado.
Hay otras 23 categorías de premios en los SXSW Gaming Awards entre las que podemos destacar al mejor juego para móviles del año con Pokemon Go como ganador, al mejor eSport del año llevándole a las claras un imponente Overwatch, el premio a la creación fan del año para el juego Brutal Doom 64 mod y el premio a la mejor banda sonora para el DOOM. Juegazo en cualquier caso pero en mi opinión la señora Yoko Shimomura fulmina cualquier banda sonora con la aportada a Final Fantasy XV.
