2024 Golden Lance Award for Best Sports/Racing Game of the Year

2 minutes read

Sports and racing games are as old as gaming itself. From the early days of the Nintendo Entertainment System, sports and racing gaming have gone hand-in-hand with every console generation. Each technological development also coincided with leaps in sports/racing game visuals, mechanics, and features. That is why it is always important to celebrate sports/racing games, despite many of the mainstream ones going through live service features. With that said, here is the winner of Lords of Gaming’s 2024 Sports/Racing Game of the Year.

Winner – College Football 25

College Football 25 marks the NCAA series return, and in my opinion it is one of the best football games I have ever played. College Football 25 gets my vote for best sports title because even months after its release, I still play it regularly. The game has many modes to choose from and players are able to customize their experience in great depth. On top of this, the Ultimate Team mode is not as micro-transaction-reliant as EA’s other sports titles. Players can build a solid team that is competitive without spending a single dime. Including a co-op mode on Ultimate team is a nice cherry on top allowing you and 2 other friends to play against opponents online.
