We have extended the nominations deadline to Monday, January 24th at 1pm. Any nominations after this date will not be accepted, so make sure you make your voice heard.

For this the 8th annual Women In Games Awards there are 13 categories in which to make a case for the best UK candidate. Simply head to the awards website, select as many categories as applicable, and for each nomination include a name, company, contact email, and a supporting statement no longer than 750 words.

When nominating, please make sure to let your nominee know beforehand, in case the person in question doesn’t identify as a woman.

Whether you’re nominating yourself or a colleague, this is a chance to recognise the very best female talent across the entire spectrum of the UK games industry, from game creation to business development, to education and esports. Make your voice heard!

After deliberating over a shortlist, we will be announcing the Women In Games Awards finalists in February, before an esteemed panel of judges decide the winners in time for the live presentation set for Friday 4th March. The awards ceremony will be held at Altitude in London’s Millbank Tower. With its night time views of the capital, a stunning backdrop for a memorable night of much-needed celebration is assured.

[Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
