FFVII: Remake wins the Game Critics Awards: Best of E3 2019

And The Outer Worlds wins the award for the best original game as the votes have been counted.

Another E3 has been and gone and another game has been crowned best of the show by game critics from around the world (including us) and this year that game is none other than Final Fantasy VII: Remake. That doesn't quite tally with our own top list (which you can read about here), but we still think it's a worthy winner and it was certainly in the running for our own top spot.
