The best thing to see onstage in Vegas is either Barry Manilow at the Westgate, or the #DICEawards. Honestly it’s kinda a toss up. (Pics from @hmason.bsky.social who chose Clair Obscur and ARC Raiders over Copacabana and Mandy…THIS TIME)

Thank you so much for this incredible honor 🏆

Thank you everyone who supported #TheAlters along the way!

We’re truly grateful for the recognition at the #DICEAwards 💜

And this was the moment our very own Barry collected the Immersive Reality Game of the Year award at the @official-aias.bsky.social #DICEAwards last night, good job Bazza! 🥳
