The Game Awards 2025 are over, all the awards have been presented. However, the community now selects one last winner and calls him the Santa Claus of the Game Awards.
Who impressed at the awards? The musician in question is Pedro Eustache. He plays flute, saxophone, bass, and clarinet. He is known, among other things, for his work on film soundtracks with composers like Hans Zimmer.
He gained real fame in 2022 (via YouTube) with one of his first performances at the Game Awards. Since then known as Flute Guy
(Flötentyp
), he is regularly celebrated on social media for his performances.
He was also back in 2025 and has since received much support from the community. Along with his regular instruments, he brought a flute made from drainage pipes. Here you can see him during his performance while presenting the Game of the Year nominees:
You are the Santa Claus of the Game Awards
How does the community celebrate? On X.com, Pedro Eustache posted a video in which he presents his flutes. In the comments, users shower him with praise and thanks. Here are some excerpts:

This is amazing! You are like Cloud with all his swords, but it’s flutes!
- Trollstat1212 (via X.com):
You are the Santa Claus of the Game Awards, we look forward to your arrival every year and all the joy you bring, Pedro!
The community even posts memes related to this year’s performance:
Why is Flute Guy so popular? There isn’t really a specific, defining factor for his popularity. However, he always plays his flute at performances with immense passion and extreme enthusiasm. During his performances, he switches instruments within seconds. He bobs and even headbangs here and there.
You can really tell his enthusiasm and love for his craft. The community notices this too. vrpancho writes, for example, on X.com: Thank you for showing people how cool instruments can be. You probably helped a lot of kids find their way to music.
By the way, this year at the Game Awards, Clair Obscure: Expedition 33 won a total of nine awards. The game was nominated in ten different categories overall. However, not all players are pleased with this. For example, the streamer HandofBlood complains loudly about it and even released his own tier list afterward.
