Golden Joystick Awards presents its "Ultimate Game of the Year" award annually, honoring the best overall game across all platforms as voted by the public. The 2026 Golden Joystick Awards are scheduled to be presented on November 11, 2026.

This market will resolve according to the listed video game that wins the 2026 Golden Joystick Award for Ultimate Game of the Year.

If a game is not officially shortlisted for the 2026 Golden Joystick Award for Ultimate Game of the Year when the shortlist is announced, the corresponding market will immediately resolve to "No".

In case of a tie for the winner, this market will resolve in favor of the nominated game whose listed title comes first in alphabetical order.

If, for any reason, no winner is declared by November 30, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "Other".

The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the Golden Joystick Awards, including data from their website (e.g., https://www.gamesradar.com/golden-joystick-awards/) and the live broadcast of the award ceremony; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
