God of War isn't exactly short of accolades since releasing in April last year, and now it has several BAFTA awards to add to the collection as well. Five of them, to be precise, since it won Audio Achievement, Narrative, Music, Performer for Jeremy Davies as The Stranger, and Best Game.

When it comes to Artistic Achievement though, Lucas Pope's Return of the Obra Dinn scooped that, alongside the Game Design award. Nintendo Labo was another product to pick up two awards, this being for Family and Game Innovation.

My Child Lebensborn took home the title for Game Beyond Entertainment, while Florence won Mobile Game and A Way Out beat off the likes of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate to get the Multiplayer award. Into The Breach won in the Original Property category too, and when the public voted on EE Mobile Game of the Year, Old School RuneScape came out on top.

Other games getting awards included Forza Horizon 4 (British Game), Yoku's Island Express (Debut Game), and Fortnite (Evolving Game). Do you agree with all the winners?
