We want to know how you think these games stack up in the pantheon of the greatest games of all time. Across the year, our audience declared what they think are the most iconic games of the year as part of the IGN Icon Awards. This December, we\u2019re tallying our followers\u2019 votes through IGN\u2019s Instagram to see which game from 2023 you think is worthy of the coveted title.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

This is where great starts happen\u2014in partnership with the USAF, we\u2019ve selected 32 of the highest-rated games of 2023 and have placed them into a March Madness-style tournament bracket. The games were randomly sorted into four groups, and then ranked from one to eight to get their placement. Beginning December 5, you\u2019ll vote on the winner of each match-up.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

You can start voting on all of the first round\u2019s 16 matchups via our social channels (Instagram Stories) on December 5! Polls close 24 hours after posting, and voting for the second round (featuring the 16 games with the top vote counts), will begin on December 7. The full schedule is as follows;<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
