Slayed at the end with an Elden Ring double-bill


SGDQ’s been happening since 2011, so the many speedrunners who’ve taken part have generated quite a sum for charity in that time. The summer events alone have raised a total of $18.9 million (£15.6 million) for Doctors Without Borders and the Organisation For Autism Research. Games Done Quick’s events have netted close to $41 million (£33.8 million) for various causes over the past twelve years.
Games Done Quick’s organisers tweeted the total amount, thanking the runners and donors in the process:
