Nearly every game has its own speedrunning community, and Elden Ring is no exception. Released in late February 2022, the newest installment in the Dark Souls series has already drawn in a number of dedicated speedrunners who want to beat the game as quickly as humanly possible.<\/p>\n

Streamer and content creator Distortion2 achieved a record-breaking 8 minute, 56 second Elden Ring speed run during a Twitch Stream on 11th April 2022.<\/p>\n

The speed run was achieved through some friendly competition and some help from exploits. Read on to learn more about Distortion2’s speed run and exactly how he achieved it.<\/p>\n

Distortion2 set the original Elden Ring speedrunning record on 14th March, when he beat Elden Ring in under thirty minutes. The first run took 28 minutes, and Distortion2 called it the “world’s first sub 30 minutes run.” A few days later, he managed an 18-minute run.<\/p>\n

Streamer Mitchriz responded on 8th April 2022 by posting his 12 minutes, 32 seconds run – the world record at the time – but Distortion2 was not ready to let go of his first-place spot.<\/p>\n
