The upcoming ceremony - BAFTA's annual celebration of all things gaming - has unveiled this year's shortlist ahead of the 90-minute online live stream event on March 25.

Leading the way is 'The Last Of Us Part II', as the epic sequel has received the highest number of nominations for a game since the ceremony launched in 2004.

It has trumped last year's record setters 'Death Stranding' and 'Control', which each received 11.

'The Last Of Us Part II' is on the shortlist for best game, animation, artistic achievement, audio achievement, game design and performer in a leading role for both Ashley Johnson (Ellie) and Laura Bailey (Abby).

Meanwhile, Effrey Piece (Tommy), Shannon Woodward (Dina) and Troy Baker (Joel) are in the running as performers in supporting roles.

The title is also nominated for the 'Game Beyond Entertainment' prize and the EE Game of the Year - voted on by the public - as well as technical achievement and the EE Game of the Year category, which will be voted on by the public.

Elsewhere, 'Ghost of Tsushima' received 10 nominations, 'Hades' got eight, and both 'Spider-Man' and 'Dreams' have seven.
