Press release:
December 28th, 2020.
Running the indie of the year awards for over a decade (with past winners including Rimworld and Ion Fury) is a mighty privilege of ours. Each year we look forward to going through all the votes and exploring all of the top 100 nominees which are decided after the culmination of thousands and thousands of community votes.

This year saw many compelling entries but in the end it was HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed that took out 1st place, followed closely by the popular Hydroneer and She Will Punish Them taking out 2nd and 3rd respectively.

The final Top 10 includes:

HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed
Hydroneer
She Will Punish Them
Hades
Among Us
ExoTanks
M&B II: Bannerlord
Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout
Nanotale – Typing Chronicles
ScourgeBringer

Congratulations to the winners for making incredible indie games for us to enjoy, and thanks for your support in helping us generate buzz and promotion for this event each year.

Here are the winner announcements for any coverage you would like to prepare for the final results:
