*O vencedor surge sempre no início da lista e os nomeados são apresentados na lógica: Jogo – Estúdio; Editora, correspondendo a nomeação à equipa responsável por cada componente do jogo (Desenvolvimento ou Escrita, por exemplo). Entre parêntesis, após o nome do jogo, podem surgir os compositores ou autores nomeados para categorias específicas. No caso dos performers, actores e actrizes, das categorias Performer in a Supporting Role e Performer in a Leading Role, os nomeados são apresentados como: Jogo – Actor/Actriz (Personagem).
Curiosidades dos BAFTA Games Awards 2020
- Outer Wilds e Disco Elysium foram os nomeados mais premiados, vencendo, cada um, em três categorias distintas.
- Death Stranding e Life is Strange 2 (Episódios 2-5) foram os únicos jogos que receberam duas nomeações dentro de uma mesma categoria, Performer in a Supporting Role.
- A categoria EE Mobile Game of the Year foi a única a ser votada pelo público.
