The UK Games Expo has two prize categories: the Judges’ Choice and the People’s Choice Awards. That means there are two sets of UK Games Expo Awards.
It was a competitive year, with 52,000 people attending, making it the biggest UKGE since the launch of the mammoth meeting of geeks. That also helped the event raise £23,000 for charities.
Here’s a look at who the UK Games Expo Awards 2023 winners are.
