Cuphead claims three DICE Awards while Breath of the Wild takes home Game of the Year

To culminate the week-long games industry gathering, the 21st annual DICE Awards took place last night in Las Vegas where dozens of games were honored at the event. While Nintendo was the big winner and snagged Game of the Year with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Microsoft also got in a few wins with Cuphead.
