Ready at Dawn’s cinematic actioner The Order: 1886 continues to be recognized for its remarkable CG effects, recently earning the coveted accolade for Outstanding Visual Effects in a Real-Time Project at the Visual Effects Society Awards.

Word comes by way of The Hollywood Reporter, revealing that during the 14th annual VESA ceremony, The Order: 1886 fended off strong competition from Destiny, Halo 5: Guardians, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate and even virtual reality expansion, The Hobbit: A Thief in the Shadows, to take home the gong.

The team behind the PS4 exclusive were elated with the news:

We are humbled and honored to have won the #VESAwards for Outstanding Visual Effects in a Real-Time Project! Congrats to the whole team! — Ready At Dawn (@RAD_Studios) February 3, 2016

More often than not, the annual VES awards are designed to champion the cream of the crop in the movie industry, though Outstanding Visual Effects in a Real-Time Project is a category that lends video games the spotlight.

A congratulations is in order, then, to the Ready at Dawn team and everyone involved in creating The Order: 1886!
