Billed as part of this weekend’s TwitchCon, Games Done Quick Express is the latest video game speedrunning event from Games Done Quick, the group that wrote the book on speedrunning. Since 2010, the event has raised many millions of dollars for worthy causes, including more than $2.3 million for Doctors Without Borders this past June, all while logging insanely fast run times of classic games. Highlights of this weekend’s event include death- (and time-) defying runs of Dark Souls III, Earthbound, and Silent Hill II, while money raised will go to important foundations like St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
