Speaking to The Bbc before the nominations were announced, Bafta CEO Jane Millichip said that the awards were an important platform to raise awareness of the industry to the broader public.

She hopes they can show that working in games is an option for anyone, saying: " Our charity work, whether focused on talent and skills development, bursaries and scholarships feed into the awards.

" The awards can elevate All That work, and enable us to provide the inspiration for New People to join the industry and put games in front of more people. Whether it's monster commercial games like God of War or Elden Ring , or all of The Games nominated in The Debut game category. "

She added that they wanted to " help level the playing field for people who come from backgrounds who might find barriers to entry" and said: " It's as important for us to do that in gaming as it is in film and television. "

For Tara Saunders, Chair of the Bafta Games Committee, the awards help " validate gaming as a serious career choice. "

" The industry has a perception issue when It Comes to career advisers in schools, or with parents, " She Said .

" Not enough is known about it, but the fact that Bafta host the awards, and people who Love Games can see that then there's a lot of future talent learning that you can have a career in games. They will see that Bafta spotlight and it will bring them through. It has been a historical issue. "
