As usual, Sony has opened the voting blog to elect the best video games released on PS4, PS5 and PlayStation VR in 2021. The 16 awards will be awarded only and exclusively to players with their preferences.
The vote has already begun and will end at 08:59 a.m. on Tuesday 14 December. Due to the closing date, some games could not be part of it: it is the case, for example, of Among Us, which comes out on December 14 on the consoles of Sony house. Here are the games in via for the most coveted prizes:

You can consult the remaining 14 categories (including Best History, Best Graphics and Most Expected Game of 2022 and Beyond) and assign your votes by directing you to the PlayStation Blog. Each category includes a free field, which you can fill out in case you feel that an absent game deserves to be considered. The Best Multiplayer Experience category focuses on titles launched in 2021, but also takes into account those that have been revolutionized by important updates over the last year, such as Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker. As for the category of the most anticipated games of 2022 and Beyond, only those titles have been candidates that have already received an official name: it is strange, however, to note the lack of God of War: Ragnarok among the candidates. Luckily, it can be added manually by anyone who wants it.
