'Elden Ring' Wins Elon Musk's Kudos For Game Of The Year Award — And Gets Stage Spotlight Stolen By Invader

'Elden Ring' won the Game of the Year title at The Game Awards 2022 — but a stage invader stole the thunder. 

What Happened: The ninth edition of The Game Awards has wrapped and FromSoftware's 'Elden Ring' bagged the biggest award of the night — Game of the Year — beating games such as Sony's SONY 'God of War: Ragnarok' and 'Horizon Forbidden West.'

However, the show was interrupted by a stage invader. The individual initially stayed in the background and largely remained unnoticed, but then suddenly took the microphone and said, "I want to nominate my Orthodox rabbi Bill Clinton," before being quickly ushered by security.

The Game Awards host Geoff Keighley said that the invader was arrested. 

It is unlikely the invader drama will dampen the mood of the 'Elden Ring' team that received applause from netizens and gamers alike.

Twitter CEO Elon Musk was among those who congratulated the 'Elden Ring' Team.
