Although Elden Ring was only released a few weeks ago, there have already been a number of speedrunners who have broken the sub-30 minute mark. Speedrunner Distortion2, a legend in the Dark Souls community, is the first person to have beaten Elden Ring in under thirty minutes. His record breaking run of 36 minutes and 20 seconds was helped by momentum. It’s not surprising that speedrunner Distortion2 beat the 40-minute mark just two days after his initial run.

Distortion2
There are many variations of Elden Ring speedruns. The newest one, Distortion2, uses the “any % unrestricted” glitch and reloads the game as much as possible to reach the completion time of 28:59. This cheat is extremely useful for beating the game in record time as it helps you avoid many of the challenges and bosses that a normal run requires.
The time was recorded while skipping the mandatory animations in the game. The time spent in-game only counts towards the final time. This helps save minutes, and this is the first time that the game has been beaten under nine minutes. Eventually, this glitch will be fixed and we will see if there are any other ways to reduce the time. However, it may take some time for everyone to achieve this.
Distortion2 has set a new world record for beating the game in six minutes, 59 seconds. In this attempt, the speedrunner used exploits and glitches in order to achieve the record. The speedrunner has to be extremely skilled to pull off these feats. The game has many secrets to unlock, so make sure to read up on them before you try it yourself.
While Distortion2 has been a familiar face to the Dark Souls community, Distortion2 recently broke multiple world records. It was the first game to reach the end credits in under 30 minutes. The speedrunner also compiled all known glitches and techniques to achieve the completion time. Then, two days later, Distortion2 broke the record yet again by reaching the end credits in eight minutes, 56 seconds.
This is an incredible achievement in the world of speedrunning, as Distortion2 took less than nine minutes to complete Elden Ring in the same amount of time as it took the average gamer over 100 hours. Distortion2 is currently streaming his Elden Ring speedruns on Twitch, and he has set a new goal of completing the game in under thirty minutes. And if Distortion2 is able to beat this game more than once, we’ll have a lot to celebrate.
MitChriz
A video game player named MitChriz has beaten the Elden Ring in under twelve minutes, 32 seconds. To do so, the gamer used a speedrun trick known as ‘zipping’, which allows players to teleport through a world while running at a high speed. The technique allows players to skip sections of the game and avoid bosses. MitChriz’s time is one of the fastest of any player to beat the game so far.
The video gamer, MitChriz, played Elden Ring on PC and used a trick known as ‘The Zip’ to speed up the game. This helped him zip across the map, dodge enemies and grab useful gear along the way. MitChriz used this technique to beat the game in a little less than twelve minutes, but the video features spoilers and gameplay footage. The video is available for free on YouTube.
As for his strategy, MitChriz used a technique called ‘zipping’ to skip all bosses. He then used this strategy to skip all bosses except for the final one. The result? A game over thirteen minutes. MitChriz has also beaten Eldrix and Distortion2 in the game’s any-percent category. However, the game isn’t perfect, and it’s not clear if MitChriz will ever top the other players.
Despite these flaws, MitChriz is still a very fast gamer, and this helped him get the credits rolling in as little time as possible. He also used a trick known as ‘zipping’, which allows players to teleport to certain locations and skip sections of the game. By zipping, MitChriz bypassed the entire Limgrave and Liurnia portions of the game and sped through the gate to the endgame area.
