HSR And WuWa Lost Monopoly Won And Got Attacked!

HSR and Wuwa did not take home the Game of the Year award at the Mobile Game Awards 2024, with Monopoly Go unexpectedly claiming the top honor. Nevertheless, Wuwa was recognized with Best Audio/Visual Accomplishment, HSR received Best Storytelling, and Hoyoverse was named Best Developer. This result surprised many and left gacha gamers feeling disappointed, as they felt that Monopoly Go wasn’t the most deserving choice. Some even speculated that the Game Awards were unfair or biased. However, Monopoly Go’s victory can be attributed to its widespread popularity across all age groups, from young to old. While it may not have the same vocal fanbase as HSR or Wuwa, Monopoly Go has consistently been a global favorite. Its player base has been substantial since its early days as a board game, and it continues to thrive in its digital form. So, perhaps it’s worth considering whether Monopoly Go truly earned this recognition.

Don't underestimate the power of old aunties everywhere. They are unparallel gamers

Wuwa has only been out for 3 months but got an honorable mention for game of the year and actually won an award. The future looks bright rovers

Never thought Monopoly would win honestly

[emeraldpistol]

people seem to forget that monopoly has been a thing for almost a century at this point and it's still going strong

[directo]

welp, now we know who's getting attacked after google classroom

[sleather]

Honestly, I'm happy with this outcome just because of the fact that wuwa and hoyo fans would go to war with each other if either of those games got mobile game of the year.

[MilkyStarTrail]

I would have never thought in my years monopoly go would win

Stand proud HSR and WUWA, you are strong - Monopoly

[takashimashou]

Welp... Monopoly Go is gonna be the next Google Classroom apparently

[Personwithproblems]

It still feels a bit unfair to me.
Wuwa or HSR did not "need" to win.
But Monopoly is famous for being a board game.
It doesn't need to win the *mobile* game award.
Pretty sure it already won the board game market.

"Monopoly won a ward"
Google Classroom : "finaly a worthy opponent, our battle would be legendary"

As a 3 month game it's a very big thing for wu wa they have the potential to win more awards in the future

[erushi]

Monopoly have created and destroyed friendships since mid 1900s

I believe it deserved its spot

[normicanomic]

Never underestimate the full power of the elderly and adults on their dedication on casual mobile game

I'm happy with this outcome tbh.

This is a once-in-a-welkin-moon moment where the two communities have finally found a beautiful, albeit fleeting..."peace"
"Screw monopoly"
"Yeah screw monopoly dude"

Fun fact(?): Monopoly Go is estimated to have spent 500 mills on marketing alone. Thats more than the combined development costs of HSR and Wuwa.

That's totaly the first time i hear that something like mobile monopoly exist

[kateflynt]

This reminds me of when, back in 2012, there were two contenders for rookie of the year in K-pop (EXO and BAP). Their fans had been fighting for months on who was gonna win the big award at the end of the year. Well, when the award came, it went to Busker Busker instead of EXO or BAP 😅 I'll never forget it
