De-alungul ultimilor ani au fost create mai multe evenimente menite sa premieze cele mai importante nume din industria Gamingului. DICE Awards sunt un fel de premii OSCAR pentru producatorii de jocuri si au loc anual de 18 ani incoace.
Organizate ca parte a conventiei DICE Summit,unde participa elita industriei de Gaming. Marele castigator al premiilor din acest an a fost jocul celor de la EA si Bioware, Dragon Age Inquisition.
Victoria a fost una surprinzatoare, si asta pentru ca Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor a castigat 8 premii din 9 nominalizari, in timp ce Dragon Age fusese nominalizat doar la doua categorii.
Evenimentul de decernare a premiilor a avut loc in Las Vegas si a onorat producatori consacrati dar si independenti de jocuri, nominalizati la numai putin de 23 de categorii. Printre castigatori s-au mai aflat Destiny, care a primit 4 premii si Hearthstone care a plecat acasa cu 2 premii.
