Introducing The Smash Jump Awards 2024

Introducing The Smash Jump Awards! Let’s be honest, 2024 was, by and large, a good year for game releases. Great games across all genres and to top off our first year; we wanted to celebrate that. Carefully selected games released from January 1 through November 1. Join us December 15 where we will be announcing the winners!

The Smash Jump Awards, for transparency, includes games we have done reviews for and those that we have not. Categories include the Best RPG, Best Family, Best Horror, Best Shooter, Outstanding Technical Achievement, the coveted “Game of the Year,” which we have playfully dubbed The Smashy, and more, all laid out on The Smash Jump Awards website.

Future years will likely include audience voted categories as well as more ways you can interact with us. This first year, though, will be pretty simple.
