Geoff Keighley has gone into full-blown beast-mode as preparations are made for what is sure to be a bigger and better show than last year’s Game Awards. Of course, the 2016 event wasn’t small by any means, but Keighley and company want to keep growing and offering more to viewers. That’s why they have not only renewed their partnership with Twitter, but have brought on a handful of other services to stream the event, and in different languages. Among them are Facebook, Twitter, YouTube(4K), Twitch, PlayStation Store, Steam, Xbox Live, AfreecaTV (South Korea), KakaoTV (South Korea), NicoNico (Japan), Tencent (China), UOL Jogos (Brazil), and more.

Of course, before The Game Awards 2017 event kicks off, the nominees certainly must be revealed. This Tuesday, November 14, all shall be unveiled at 10am ET/7am PT. The running for “Game of the Year” is sure to be packed, so keep your eyes peeled for that. Also being introduced this year is the Game Awards Orchestra, which can only mean beautifully awesome music lies ahead.

In addition to all of this, fan-voting will kick off when the nominees are announced on November 14. Fans will be able to do this for the eSports player, eSports team, and most-anticipated game categories via Facebook Messenger, Google Search(type “The Game Awards voting”), and Twitter DM. Outside of these three categories, a panel of 52 industry experts will decide the fate of each nominee. No matter who wins, the show is surely to be a resounding success.
