Sure, Elden Ring might be challenging, but speedrunners are dusting the Lands Between faster than it takes to cook a turkey.
On Wednesday, well-known speedrunner LilAggy completed Elden Ring in 58 minutes and 38 seconds. Allegedly the first time anyone’s ever finished FromSoftware’s action RPG that quickly. Much like recent Skyrim and Pokémon Shining Pearl speedruns, LilAggy uses game-alerting skips to blitz through Elden Ring. It takes a lot of skill, finesse, and practice to pull this inhuman feat off, especially since the game has barely been out for two weeks.
