The Steam Awards 2025 has kicked off its voting process, and players can now decide the fate of many games that have released recently. The competition is fierce because 2025 has been quite a good year for indie titles, with games such as Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Hollow Knight Silksong. The triple A side of things also has some very interesting things going on for it, Bandai Namco’s Digimon Story Time Stranger was an instant hit that won some awards so far. The battle is raging, and you can help choose the destiny of many indie developers.
The Steam Awards 2025 are crazy
There’s a ton of things to pick from, and honestly, you should be wise when doing so. Out of many things, you have to look out for things that have any sort of Generative “AI” on them, you should never vote out these grifts as there’s no effort behind them. Titles like Call of Duty Black Ops 7 are dead in the water, and other games do not really come to mind when thinking about these scams. Thankfully there’s plenty of indie games that have been crafted with love and care, because people still care about the medium and the quality of it.
Games like Z.A.T.O. // I Love the World and Everything In It deserve all the recognition they should get. Masterpieces like this need to have a place at The Steam Awards 2025 because they have been made with love. The narrative behind it is amazing, and I can guarantee that you will get attached to the characters quite fast, but don’t get too attached perhaps. As stated before, competition is fierce, and the possibility of Z.A.T.O. // I Love the World and Everything In It winning The Steam Awards 2025 Story Telling Category might be like finding a very thin needle in the haystack.
