DBolical :
December 1st, 2023 - 22nd Annual Mod of the Year Awards have officially kicked off. A voting booth has been added to all mod profiles on ModDB, and for the next four weeks player votes will determine the top 100 mods of 2023 (announced December 11) and the overall winner announced shortly after Christmas.
Last year, after 90,000 of the communities votes were tallied, it was the single-player adventure mod Entropy : Zero 2 for Half-Life 2 that took out first place, followed closely by the all encompassing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly for Call of Pripyat in second, and Unification for Dawn of War in third. These mods alongside the remaining top 10 of 2022, join previous winners including, Brutal Doom, DayZ, Garry’s Mod, Counter-Strike and others which have gone on to become household names.
For many years mods have played a huge part in the gaming community, offering a huge pipeline of unique and innovative content to explore and play. As we close up 2023, we invite your readers to join us in celebrating the remarkable effort the modding community puts into their creations. To make voting easy, we have prepared a year in review showcasing the top mod releases each quarter.
Only the community can decide who wins in 2023 - here's how it'll all play out:
- Phase 1 Nominations Begin: NOW!
- Phase 2 The TOP 100: 11th December
- Editors Choice Award: 22nd December
- Players Choice Best Unreleased: 27th December
- Players Choice Mod of the Year: 29th of December
Thanks for your coverage of the event, we shall keep you informed as it progresses and please encourage your readers to participate by voting to help us determine who will be crowned the 2023 Mod of the Year.
