The Golden Joystick 2021 awards ceremony was held last night and this year’s winners have received their awards. Last year, The Last of Us Part II stormed. Not as much as he did, but this year it was Resident Evil Village that made its producers smile, closing the night with four awards (in fact, considering capcom was awarded in the Best Game Studio category, we can say 5 awards).
