The British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) awards program took place tonight, and The Last of Us walked away with top honors and five awards. It wasn’t the overwhelming victory that Naughty Dog’s game experienced at the DICE awards earlier this year, but the game managed to handily beat out its closest competition: Grand Theft Auto V and Tearaway (which took three awards each).
