MCV/DEVELOP News, events, research and jobs from the games industry
Some good gaming news this year for a change: The MCV/DEVELOP Awards will be returning on Thursday, June 20, 2024, and will be taking place at the Royal Lancaster Hotel, overlooking London’s Hyde Park. It’ll be the summer solstice – a glorious day on which to celebrate the many achievements of the UK games industry.
We’ll be announcing the winners on the night, of course, but before then we’ll need your nominations for the UK’s best studios, agencies, partners and games.
Below is a list of all the awards that are up for grabs. Some are new, some have been tweaked and most should be obvious. For those that aren’t, we’ll be explaining everything next week. For now, all you have to do is ponder the list, ready your nominations and save the date – Thursday 20th June.
Tickets are available now.
