Awesome Games Done Quick 2020 schedule as event begins

In what’s become an annual event, Awesome Games Done Quick (AGDQ) raises money for the Prevent Cancer Foundation through viewer donations.  

Taking place across seven days from Sunday 5 January, the event sees top speedrunners show off their best times across a wide breath of games – with hopes of breaking a few records in the process.  

Last year’s Summer Games Done Quick event managed to raise over $3 million for charity Doctors Without Borders, while AGDQ 2019 raised over $2.4 million last January.  

Highlights in the 2020 event so far have been the unpredictable The Binding Of Isaac Afterbirth+, while a run of Legend Of Zelda: Skyward Sword showed some hugely impressive skips to cut through the game’s length.  

Future highlights look set to revolve around new titles like Devil May Cry 5, The Outer Worlds and a Super Mario Maker 2 4v4 Blind Relay Race.  

It isn’t just about speedruns though, with giveaways, interviews and special events all taking place across the week.  

You can check out the full schedule and watch all the action on the AGDQ Twitch channel below.
