About the Canadian Game Awards
As the third largest developer of video games in the world, the Canadian Game Awards celebrates Canada’s spot on the world stage as a leader in interactive entertainment. This has been designed to be “by the industry and for the industry” with an interest in engaging public and fan participation. 2020 was a tremendous year in the gaming space. While the industry adapted to the difficulties of developing games in quarantine, gaming communities around the world embraced indie gems and big budget AAA titles with the same excitement. 2020 has been anything but uneventful for gamers, and this is just as true in Canada as it is in the rest of the world. The Canadian Game Awards are founded and produced by Northern Arena Productions. The producers are joined by a National Advisory Board of Developers and leaders in the Canadian digital entertainment industry.
