Control and Death Stranding lead the nominations for the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences' 23rd annual DICE Awards, which will be handed out at a ceremony that will cap off the week-long DICE Summit in February.

(DICE, by the way, stands for Design, Innovate, Communicate, Entertain. Because I'm sure at least a few of you are curious.)

If those headliners sound oddly familiar, it's likely because Control and Death Stranding are also leading the nominations for the Game Developers Choice Awards, which were announced last week. They're popular games! Not the only ones, though: Other leading contenders for this year's event include Disco Elysium and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, with six nominations each, Outer Wilds and Untitled Goose Game with four, and A Short Hike, Mortal Kombat 11, Sayonara Wild Hearts, and Resident Evil 2, which received three nominations each.

A total of 65 games were nominated for the 2020 awards, which will be sorted through by "Peer Panelists" drawn from throughout the videogame industry. Winners will be announced on February 13. Here's the full list of the games in the running:
