The Game Awards have been a big deal for a long time now, it’s both a celebration of that year’s releases for gaming as well as a preview of what might come out in the future. Mainstream media tends to be a little slow in acknowledging just how big of a machine gaming can be but every now and then we get some big shows of faith in the industry, such as this year’s Game Awards being streamable on Disney+.
This year, we’re excited to share that you can also watch #TheGameAwards live on @DisneyPlus
Tune in to celebrate the year in video games, and see what’s next.

That’s right, the Geoff show is coming to the House of Mouse so expect some sort of collaboration with them during the night’s proceedings. Maybe Mickey himself with show up on stage alongside the Muppets. Square Enix’s Kingdom Hearts 4 is a big anticipated release that might get a trailer at The Game Awards, that would be a nice transition segue-way to bridge the Disney platform into a gaming related trailer.
Marvel is also attached at the hip to Disney, so news relating to their gaming sphere wouldn’t be out of the question. In fact, with Avengers: Doomsday releasing about a week after The Game Awards it’s practically a guarantee we get some sort of comic book game news to strike while the iron’s hot like an update to NetEase’s Marvel Rivals or maybe news on how Skydance Interactive’s Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra is going. Though on the subject of iron, Motive Studio is also developing an Iron Man game (whose trailer leaked a while back) and an officially released trailer for that would be pretty exciting. Not to mention Star Wars has been making some waves on the video game front with Bit Reactor’s Star Wars: Zero Company and Fuse Games’ Star Wars: Galactic Racer both having been released earlier this year.
Suffice it to say Disney has quite the hand in the gaming pie, but regardless of what we’re shown or what zany gags Geoff has lined up for the show you can be almost certain that something will be going down for Disney to feature The Game Awards on Disney+. Regardless, it’s a testament to how big the gaming industry is and how big The Game Awards have become that they’re being featured on Disney+, so if you’ve got Disney+ be sure to give the TGAs a watch on December 10th.
