Best Male Character 2015 Winner
Geralt of Rivia (The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt)
Lover, fighter, master of the side-eye; Geralt of Rivia really came into his own in The Witcher 3.

Runner-Up
Rhys (Tales from the Borderlands)
Telltale’s hilarious Tales from the Borderlands series was a Cheat Code favorite this year, and its well-written characters are a big part of that appeal. Aspiring Vault-hunter Rhys represents for the series here. This cunning, sarcastic, ambitious, but loyal adventurer makes a great anti-hero. He’s great fun, and you’ll root for him even if he is a bit of an a-hole.
