Summer Games Done Quick 2018 Schedule Released

by Imran Khan on Apr 23, 2018 at 01:59 PM

The programming schedule for Summer Games Done Quick, the annual speedrunning event that runs through games quickly for charity, has been released.

This year, the event begins with Banjo-Tooie on Sunday, June 24 and ends with Final Fantasy VI as the closer on June 30. In the middle, you'll find things like Pikmin 3, Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Contra: Shattered Soldier, Castlevania, Cuphead, Prey, Divinity: Original Sin II, Undertale, Super Mario Maker, and way, way more.

You can find the full schedule here for when you need to ask for time off because you're coincidentally very sick during the Mega Man block and can't come in to work.

SGDQ 2018 will be raising money this year for Doctors without Borders, an international medical humanitarian organization that provides healthcare regardless of geographic or political circumstances.

 

Our Take
The long RPG blocks never really do much for me, but there's a lot on this schedule I'm really eager to see. The Pokemon Yellow/Red one should be really interesting, as it seems to be one player controlling both games simultaneously with one controller.
