The Nebula Awards, a long-running honor for excellence in science fiction and fantasy writing, has included video game writing since 2018. It previously bestowed its top prize in game writing to Elden Ring in 2023. FromSoftwares Hidetaka Miyazaki has now received the honor of a nomination once again this year, this time for Elden Ring DLC Shadow of the Erdtree.Although Shadow of the Erdtree might be one of the more recognizable names on the list, its perhaps more impressive and just plain cool to see indie darling 1000xResist getting a nomination (especially given its snub at The Game Awards 2024), as well as Pacific Drive, which was nominated for Best Debut Indie Game at TGAs but did not take home that prize. All three games made Polygons own Top 50 Games of the Year list last year.Heres the full list of the Nebula Awards video game writing nominees:A Death in HyperspacebyStewart C Baker,Phoebe Barton,James Beamon,Kate Heartfield,Isabel J.
