The people behind Baldur's Gate 3 said they'd poured their heart into the RPG as they collected the Game of the Year prize

Actor Timothée Chalamet revealed the Game of the Year at the videogame industry's biggest awards ceremony.

The Wonka star announced that fantasy RPG Baldur's Gate 3 had won the top prize at the Los Angeles ceremony.

Accepting the award, Belgian developer Larian said the epic fantasy RPG based on Dungeons and Dragons was a labour of love.

It dominated the awards with six wins including best performance, best RPG and player's choice.

Timothée was introduced by awards host Geoff Keighley as "ModdedController360" - the name of his now-deleted teenage YouTube channel celebrating painted gaming peripherals.

The Wonka star has spoken about being a keen gamer in interviews and was recently photographed on a visit to legendary developer Hideo Kojima's Japanese studio.
