Many in the community felt like it would be a top contender at this year’s The Game Awards, and that looks to be the case. The show has been announced as one of the nominees for the Best Adaptation awards, but for some odd reason, it’s competing against the biggest disappointment of the year, Legend of Lara Croft.

Many tune into The Games Award for the world premiers, but others watch to see which video game adaptations take the trophy home. The award for the Best Adaptation has always been hotly debated, but it shouldn’t even be debated in 2024.

The six nominees for this year are Fallout, Knuckles, Arcane Season 2, Like a Dragon: Yakuza, and Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft.

Considering Arcane‘s impact on the industry, it’s a sure-shot winner of this award. What’s really mind-boggling is that The Game Awards is trying to place this incredible show in the same category as the biggest disappointment of the year, Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft.

back in October and continued Lara Croft’s journey after the events of the 2018 game Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

The show’s story simply ******* to grab the attention of the community and got worse as each episode went on. The animation is quite boring and minimalist, and most of the show’s attempts at any kind of humor were obnoxious. The writers don’t give the cast enough room to work with anything. This show shouldn’t have been anywhere near the nominees for The Games’ Award.

I mean none of these are even close to arcane.

It’s truly shocking how Arcane is ahead of the curve, as it hasn’t even finished airing yet.

Arcane isnt even finished airing, and its likely already won.

As one player states, the way Arcane brought the League of Legends to life was quite phenomenal, and something which the Tomb Raider show ******* to do.

Awesome lineup! I’m rooting for Arcane Season 2 – the way it brought the League of Legends universe to life was pure magic.
