The British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) EE Game of the Year, formerly EE Mobile Game of the Year is an audience voted award presented annually at the British Academy Games Awards honouring "the best game of the year, as voted for by the public".[1] The award is sponsored by the telecommunications company EE and winners receive a special solid yellow BAFTA statuette as opposed to the standard golden statuettes given to the recipients of other categories.
It was first presented to Old School RuneScape at the 15th British Academy Games Awards in 2018 as a fan-voted companion to the British Academy Games Award for Mobile Game, but was expanded and renamed at the 17th British Academy Games Awards in 2021 to include games on any platform. Nintendo are the most nominated developer, with three, and are also have the most nominations without a win. Among publishers, Sony Interactive Entertainment lead with four nominations, and are the only publisher to have two wins in the category. Nintendo and The Pokémon Company both have two nominations and are yet to win.
The current holder of the award is Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Studios, which it won at the 20th British Academy Games Awards in 2024.
