Actor Richard Summers-Calvert presented an award in the guise of Biddy Blass
Richard Summers-Calvert, who played Biddy Blass in Star Wars: Galactic Racer, presented an award at the Golden Joysticks ceremony in London, speaking in the character's language.
The 2026 Golden Joysticks ceremony took place at London's Troxy on Wednesday, 11 November. Summers-Calvert took the stage during the 44th ceremony and announced the winner in the "Best Lead Performance" category.
The actor first introduced himself and called himself a professional wrestler, then switched to the same alien language that made Biddy Blass a viral character. Earlier this year, Summers-Calvert said he was stunned by the audience's reaction to the character: on the day the game was released, he woke up surrounded by Biddy Blass memes.
The award for Best Lead Performance went to Angela Sant’Albano for her role as Grace Ashcroft in Resident Evil: Requiem. This game also won in the "Console Game of the Year" and "Ultimate Game of the Year" categories.
In other categories, Dispatch won for Best Narrative and Best Soundtrack, Onimusha: Way of the Sword for Best Audio Design, Capcom as Studio of the Year, Balatro in the mobile category Still Playing Award, and Minecraft for PC and Console Game. The Witcher 4 was named the Most Anticipated Game, while Big Walk received the Critics’ Choice Award.
