Pocket Gamers Spieler-Wahl-Sieger 2025 in Köln enthüllt

Absolutely incredible — what a year for mobile gaming!

With the Pocket Gamer People's Choice Award 2025 voting now officially closed, the excitement is palpable as the final results are prepared for unveiling at the Mobile Games Awards in Cologne on August 19th. It’s not just a celebration of great games — it’s a testament to how far mobile gaming has come, with innovation, artistry, and unforgettable experiences now defining the platform.

The list of nominees is nothing short of legendary:

• Balatro – A masterclass in minimalist design and deep gameplay loops, blending poker mechanics with roguelike chaos and a deceptively simple premise that somehow feels endlessly fresh.
• Bloons Card Storm – A triumphant return for one of the most beloved franchises, proving that even classics can evolve with style and soul.
• Fortnite – Still dominating the mobile landscape with its cultural reach, constant updates, and crossover magic.
• Monument Valley 3 – A visual and emotional crescendo from a series that redefined mobile storytelling and aesthetic wonder.
• The Star Named EOS – A narrative-rich adventure that reminds us mobile isn’t just about fast-paced action, but deep, emotional journeys.
• Songs of Conquest – A polished, strategic gem that proves mobile is no longer just for casual play.
• Squid Game: Unleashed – A bold, high-stakes adaptation that successfully captures the tension and drama of its source material.
• Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown – A stunning port that brings a classic to life on mobile with precision and flair.
• Shogun Showdown – A testament to how mobile can deliver intense, competitive multiplayer action with real depth.

And let’s not forget the newcomers making waves — Scattered Verse, Thronefall, What the Clash?, and Etheria: Restart — all pushing boundaries and proving that mobile is no longer a second-tier platform, but a true home for AAA-tier ambition.

The fact that titles like Dredge and Jump King didn’t make the cut speaks volumes — not because they’re bad, but because the bar has been raised so high. The competition isn’t just tough; it’s historic.

So to every player who cast a vote: thank you. Your voice helped shape this moment. The winner won’t just be the best game — they’ll be the one that resonated most deeply with the global mobile gaming community.

Stay tuned for the big reveal on August 19th in Cologne. Whether you're there in person or watching from afar, this is more than an award show — it’s a celebration of creativity, passion, and the joy of playing games on the go.

And if you’re still not in the audience — get your ticket now. This is one night you won’t want to miss.
