PlayStation Awards 2018 Winners Revealed; Monster Hunter: World Dominates

PlayStation Awards 2018 Winners Revealed; Monster Hunter: World Dominates
Mike Guarino
December 3, 2018

The 2018 PlayStation Award winners have been revealed by Sony Interactive Entertainment Japan Asia. For those unfamiliar with the awards, it’s an annual awards show that rewards PlayStation games solely on sales. As a result, the winners end up typically looking a lot different than most other gaming awards show winners.

Without further ado, the following are the winners by category (via Gematsu):

Quadruple Platinum Prize

Software titles with an accumulated shipment quantity (including download quantity) of over four million copies.

  • Monster Hunter: World (Capcom)

Platinum Prize

Software titles with an accumulated shipment quantity (including download quantity) of over one million copies.

  • The Last of Us Remastered (Sony Interactive Entertainment)
  • Persona 5 (Atlus) – Persona Channel news article

Gold Prize

Software titles with an accumulated shipment quantity (including download quantity) of over 500,000 copies.

  • Call of Duty: WWII (Sony Interactive Entertainment)
  • God of War (Sony Interactive Entertainment)
  • Gran Turismo Sport (Sony Interactive Entertainment)
  • Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu 2018 (Konami)
  • Marvel’s Spider-Man (Sony Interactive Entertainment)
  • Pro Evolution Soccer 2018 (Konami)
  • Super Robot Wars V (Bandai Namco Entertainment)

PlayStation Network Award

The top three network sales titles were awarded. (Between October 1, 2017 and September 30, 2018.)

  • FIFA 18 (Electronic Arts)
  • Fortnite (Epic Games)
  • Monster Hunter: World (Capcom)

Users Choice Prize

The top 10 titles voted by Japan and Asia users were awarded. (Released between October 1, 2017 and September 30, 2018.)

  • Assassin’s Creed Odyssey (Ubisoft)
  • Dark Souls Remastered (From Software)
  • Detroit: Become Human (Sony Interactive Entertainment)
  • Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age (Square Enix)
  • Fortnite (Epic Games)
  • God of War (Sony Interactive Entertainment)
  • The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV ~The End of Saga~ (Nihon Falcom)
  • Marvel’s Spider-Man (Sony Interactive Entertainment)
  • Monster Hunter: World (Capcom)
  • Yakuza: Kiwami 2 (Sega)

PlayStation VR Special Award

Three titles that have contributed to PlayStation VR were awarded. (Released between October 13, 2017 and September 30, 2018, excluding last year’s winning titles.)

  • The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR (Bethesda Softworks)
  • Gran Turismo Sport (Sony Interactive Entertainment)
  • No Heroes Allowed! VR (Sony Interactive Entertainment)

Indie & Developer Award

Three titles that have contributed to the expansion PlayStation were awarded. (Released between October 1, 2017 and September 30, 2018, excluding last year’s winning titles.)

  • Abzu (Giant Squid)
  • Dead Cells (Motion Twin)
  • Ultimate Chicken Horse (Clever Endeavour Games)

So, the big winner this year is Monster Hunter: World, which is something that I doubt many thought they would have been saying at this time last year. It was the first time the series has released on consoles in quite some time, and the game was both a big critical and commercial success for Capcom.
