The 2024 edition of Summer Games Done Quick (SGDQ) is here, and fans of speedrunning are in for a treat. This annual marathon for charity features a lineup of runs for some beloved games, including Balatro, Alan Wake 2, Elden Ring, and Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1, 2, 3, and 4 all in one run. Additionally, there will be a glitchless Baldur’s Gate 3 Honour Mode run and a shipless Outer Wilds run, which is sure to captivate audiences.
A Unique Highlight
One of the most anticipated runs at SGDQ is a live speedrun from Peanut Butter, the shiba inu who previously showcased his gaming skills at Awesome Games Done Quick. This time, Peanut Butter will be playing Ken Griffey Jr. Presents Major League Baseball for the Super NES. The goal is to win a game in just 30 minutes, adding an exciting twist to the traditional speedrun format. Fans can catch this special run on July 4th at 8:43 PM ET, and it promises to be a memorable experience.
For those unable to attend the event in person, SGDQ offers a streaming option through the Games Done Quick Twitch channel. This allows viewers to follow along with the runs in real-time and experience the excitement from the comfort of their own homes. Additionally, Games Done Quick typically uploads the runs to its YouTube channel after they have aired, ensuring that fans can revisit their favorite moments at any time.
