I The Game Awards 2020 si sono svolti a Los Angeles, il 10 dicembre 2020. L'evento è stato trasmesso in streaming su diversi siti di video sharing, ed è stato presentato dal giornalista canadese Geoff Keighley. A differenza delle precedenti edizioni, la cerimonia si è svolta virtualmente a causa della pandemia di COVID-19. Lo show è stato visto da oltre 83 milioni di stream, con 8,3 milioni di spettatori simultanei al suo apice.
Durante lo show vi sono state esibizioni musicali di Eddie Vedder e della London Philharmonic Orchestra oltre alle presenza d'ospiti noti tra cui Reggie Fils-Aimé, Gal Gadot, Brie Larson e Keanu Reeves.
The Last of Us Parte II è stato il videogioco ad aver ottenuto più candidature (11) e vittorie (7) della serata, stabilendo un record sia di candidature che di vittorie della cerimonia, aggiudicandosi inoltre il premio di Videogioco dell'anno.
Candidati e vincitori Le candidature sono state annunciate il 18 novembre 2020. Qualsiasi gioco pubblicato entro il 20 novembre 2020 era idoneo per essere preso in considerazione. I vincitori sono stati determinati tra la giuria (90 percento) e il voto del pubblico (10 percento); quest'ultimo si è tenuto tramite il sito web ufficiale. Le uniche due eccezioni sono state le categorie Player's Voice e Videogioco più atteso che è stato scelto completamente dal pubblico.
