This year's The Game Awards (TGA 2026) will also stream live on Disney+. Disney teased new announcements and surprise reveals regarding its games during the ceremony.
Disney announced in an official press release on November 12 that TGA 2026, taking place on December 10 at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, USA, will be streamed live on Disney+. The broadcast will begin at 7:30 PM ET, or December 11 at 9:30 AM KST.
TGA is a global gaming awards ceremony celebrating the achievements of games, developers, and creators released throughout the year. As in previous years, this year's event will feature award announcements across various categories, world premiere reveals of upcoming titles, new game announcements, and live musical performances.
Notably, Disney teased that major announcements and surprise reveals regarding its highly anticipated titles will be unveiled during the event. However, specific game titles or details about the announcements were not disclosed.
Disney has also been expanding its animated content leveraging game IPs recently. The company is currently offering Disney Twisted-Wonderland: The Animation and is preparing Death Stranding Isolations, a new original animated series based on Death Stranding. The series is set to air on Hulu in the United States and on Disney+ globally.
The Disney+ live stream will be available in select countries outside the US as well. However, the announcement did not specify whether viewing would be supported on Disney+ in Korea. Live streams through existing major platforms such as YouTube, Twitch, X, and TikTok will remain intact.
Nominees for this year's TGA are scheduled to be revealed in mid-November, after which fan voting for each category will open on the official website. First held in 2014, TGA is an annual event combining game awards with major reveals, establishing itself as an end-of-year festival for the gaming industry. Last year's TGA 2025 recorded over 171 million live streams combined across YouTube, Twitch, X, TikTok, and Chinese platforms.
