Speedrunners are heading back to Minneapolis. Summer Games Done Quick 2026 starts Sunday, July 5, and runs for a full week straight.
Catch all the action live on Twitch. Miss a run? VODs go up on YouTube.
The preshow kicks off at 12:30 PM ET, then the real action starts at 1 PM with a 102% run of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy’s Kong-Quest. Recent games making their GDQ debut include Don’t Stop, Girlypop!, Super Meat Boy 3D, Pragmata, Resident Evil: Requiem, Unbeatable, Mouse: PI for Hire, and Saros.
A few highlights worth catching: a pinball showcase with Total Nuclear Annihilation, the Gordon & Daxter run (a modded Jak & Daxter where you play as Gordon Freeman with Half-Life weapons), and the always-entertaining Super Mario Maker 2 race.
As always, SGDQ is raising money for Doctors Without Borders. Last year’s edition raised over $2.4 million.
