The Game Awards 2020 is set to take place on December 10 and this year, the event will be streamed live. The Game Awards is an exciting event that players look forward to every year. Like the E3, The Game Awards is an occasion for celebration and appreciation for the gaming industry. Many developers use the event as well to showcase the games they have been developing.

Similar to 2019, IGN's Sydnee Goodman will host The Game Awards 2020. "Stoked to be back," said Goodman on Twitter. "And even more excited for you all to see what's coming on Thursday!" However, she held back from sharing details on what we can expect.
The Game Awards creator and producer Geoff Keighley took to Twitter to confirm something. The event will kick off with the reveal of five new World-Premiere video game trailers. The pre-show for The Game Awards this year is said to be 30-minutes long. That is enough to showcase all five video trailers and share some new details on games, which were announced before or releasing soon.
Keighley added that this year's Game Awards will be the longest for fans to watch. Since E3 2020 was canceled, many developers will likely use The Game Awards to showcase, announce, or even possibly launch their games.
As of now, we know that Dragon Age 4 will make an appearance in some way during the event. But the details on what we may see remains a mystery. Moreover, Xbox head Phil Spencer is said to appear on the show with some exciting news on upcoming games and the Xbox Game Pass service. Spencer also used The Game Awards 2019 stage to give us the first look at the Xbox Series X .
The Game Awards 2020 will go live on December 10.
