The nomination is made by 80 arbitrators from different countries of the world, including media professionals and influencers, who were chosen based on their critical history in the games. Each arbitrator completes the polling process in secret with his editorial team by choosing the best 5 games from each category. When all the votes are received, the 5 most selected games in each category will be determined. In the event that two games have the same number of votes, the category will consist of 6 games. The nominees are announced and the final vote is divided into two parts: 90% of the result comes from the judges' votes and 10% from the fans' votes.
