Excellence In Game Writing To Be Honored At WGA In February

The Writers Guild of America has revealed the nominees for excellence in game writing. The award ceremony will be held concurrently in both New York and Los Angeles on February 13th.

Nominees include Pillars of Eternity team and the Witcher 3: Wild Hunt writing team among others. 

The WGA’s Videogame Writing Award honors the best qualifying script from a videogame published in the previous year. To be eligible for WGA consideration, games must have been released between December 1, 2014 and November 30, 2015, and feature on-screen writing credit(s). Credited videogame writers must have been or must have applied to become members of the WGA Videogame Writers Caucus at the time scripts were submitted. Work that was not produced under WGA jurisdiction was also eligible for submission. Judging for the WGA Videogame Writing Award is conducted by panels comprised of Videogame Writers Caucus members and/or Writers Guild members active in videogame writing.
