De British Academy kennen we vooral van de BAFTA's, de Britsetegenhanger van de Oscars. Ook dit jaar worden de BAFTA's gewoon weeruitgedeeld, maar kunnen ook bepaalde games (BAVGA's, staande voor British Academy Video Games Awards) op een speciaal feestje inhet zonnetje worden gezet. De British Academy heeft een hele waslijstaan categorieën verzonnen en per categorie zo'n 6 (een uitzonderingdaargelaten) genomineerde games geselecteerd. Op 5 oktober worden dewinnaars bekend gemaakt.
