Year context

How the year played out

2018 was a direct fight between God of War and Red Dead Redemption 2, but the finish line was clearer than the rivalry suggests. Red Dead Redemption 2 narrowed the gap with broad editorial support, yet God of War almost locked down the institutional verdict by winning The Game Awards, BAFTA, D.I.C.E., NAVGTR, and the New York Game Awards. Golden Joystick choosing Fortnite remains the major exception, a reminder that the year's popular current also ran outside the two narrative blockbusters.
