Since the release of Elden Ring on February 26, the most talented players have been fighting to complete the game as quickly as possible. Just a few days ago, a certain Distortion2 let us know what he can do by broadcasting an amazing speedrun. The content creator who already completed the game in less than 13 minutes broke his own record taking the title in just 8 minutes and 56 seconds. We thought this new score was impossible to beat and yet Distortion2 proved us again.
The speedrunner indeed had the ambition to go under seven minutes, and what we can say is that he succeeded. He just shared his new performance on his channel and it is beyond impressive. This time, Distortion2 finished the game in 6 minutes 59 seconds. In other words: goal achieved. To see his run, we recommend watching the video below.
The speedrunner technique revealed
As for its previous record, to achieve this new feat, Distortion2 once again used the mechanics of the zip. The latter, if you don’t know what it means, allows you to pass through gigantic chasms, or rather teleport to specific places on the map to save precious seconds. To achieve such a feat, the player must parry and move at the same time, in very limited timing. Besides propelling the player from one place to another on the map, this movement technique, amazing to say the least, leaves the environments with no time to load. Therefore, when his character lands in an area, the landscape is invisible. This allows our hero of the day to cover long distances in just a few hundredths of a second, as well as immediately taking out certain bosses, which are hard to defeat, by throwing them into the void. drop.
That’s not all, also note that the speedrunner doesn’t hesitate to travel fast or restart the game to grab a few seconds again. Indeed, if you restart the game, you can skip certain animations that take a while to unfold on the screen. And contrary to what you might think, this technique is not considered cheating as a speedrun only takes into account the time in the game. Loading times and other passages in the menus do not count.
The question we can now ask ourselves is: “are we entitled to a new one in the coming days?”.
