Top streamer Michael 'Shroud' Grzesiek is rallying his followers to support Arc Raiders for Game of the Year at The Game Awards, urging fans to unite behind Embark Studios' extraction shooter.
The Game Awards Strategy
Shroud called for his community to vote for Arc Raiders over rival Expedition 33. He emphasized the importance of support from the multiplayer gaming community to secure a win. Despite calling award shows "rigged," he admitted Expedition 33's victory would be justified but pushed for Arc Raiders instead.
- Shroud urged fans to vote for Arc Raiders.
- Competing title: Expedition 33.
- He criticized award shows but plans to vote.
Challenges and Opportunities
Although public votes at The Game Awards contribute to the result, winning Game of the Year usually requires more. Arc Raiders' strong reviews, including an 87 average on Metacritic, could help. Historical successes like Overwatch in 2016 show multiplayer games can win.
Players' Voice Award
Shroud sees the Players' Voice award, decided entirely by fan votes, as a more achievable goal. If nominated, a concentrated effort from Shroud's followers could secure a win for Arc Raiders.
