LONDON, May 29, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- TIGA, the network for video games developers and digital publishers and the trade association representing the video games industry, has today announced that its ninth annual Games Industry Awards are open for entry. The ceremony will take place at The Natural History Museum.

To enter go to www.tiga.org/awards. The deadline for entries is 23:59 p.m. on August 9th 2019.

The TIGA Games Industry Awards uniquely recognises excellence in games development, business and education. The Awards also celebrate the achievements of both small and large games development studios. The TIGA Games Industry Awards combine the expertise of a judging panel of industry professionals with a public vote for the 'Game of the Year'.

The TIGA Awards ceremony – our biggest to date - will take place at the iconic Natural History Museum in the stunning Hintze Hall. Guests will enjoy dinner underneath the museum's 25 metre blue whale skeleton which is suspended from the ceiling of the hall. The latest and greatest creativity and technology within the video games industry will be enjoyed amongst millions of years natural history.

There are 32 categories which are divided in two groups: the 'Games Awards' which are open to the entire industry, and the 'Business Of Games Awards' which are reserved for TIGA members. There are two special Awards: 'Game Of The Year', which is chosen by the development community through a public vote; and 'Outstanding Individual Of The Year', which is chosen by TIGA.

The 2019 Awards are supported by some of the biggest names in the video games industry:

* Gold Sponsors: Amiqus; Atomhawk; Lockwood Publishing; Red Kite Games; Sumo Digital Supermassive Games and The Chinese Room.

* Silver Sponsors: Dovetail Games; Portsmouth University and Universally Speaking.

* Bronze Sponsors: Bournemouth University; MHA Henderson Loggie; Hiscox; Jigsaw24; Nomad Games and Space Ape Games.
