Year context
How the year played out
The 2015 landscape ended as a landslide for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, but not as a simple walkover. Witcher 3 spread across both readers' votes and editorial picks, then added The Game Awards, GDC, Golden Joystick, NAVGTR, and SXSW; Fallout 4 answered inside the major-awards circuit with BAFTA and D.I.C.E. top honors. The year reads as broad Witcher 3 dominance with Fallout 4 holding a formal-awards counterweight.
