Bringing amazing games to the forefront of the gaming world is a core part of our mission. We aim to spread the joy and camaraderie of gaming across the globe. Today, more than ever, almost any screen can be transformed into an Xbox, showcasing the remarkable array of games crafted by talented developers from every corner of the world. These teams are the heart and soul behind unforgettable gaming experiences that captivate and inspire players of all ages. As a token of appreciation for the brilliant minds creating these games, we are pleased to announce the recipients of the 2024 Xbox Excellence Awards, celebrating the games players loved most this year.

With over a thousand games making their debut on Xbox consoles, PCs, and the cloud every year, determining the winners might seem like a simple task of assembling a panel. However, these awards specifically highlight the way you, the players, engaged with Xbox over the past year. To compile this list, we focused on four essential categories that reflect players’ enthusiasm and affection:

  1. Store Rating: This includes the highest-rated content across our stores, released in 2024, based on a minimum of 500 ratings.
  2. Player Engagement: Games drawing the highest average hours per player in their first six weeks.
  3. Daily Active Users: Recognizing games, expansions, or major updates with the top single-day active user counts in 2024. Some titles here might have launched earlier but underwent significant updates recently.
  4. Units Sold: Tracking the best-selling content across Xbox and Microsoft stores.

The final list showcases a diverse lineup of titles created by studios ranging in size from just a handful to thousands of developers, spanning 15 countries worldwide. Below, you’ll find the titles for each category, arranged alphabetically:
