Less than 48 hours remain for Summer Games Done Quick 2023. After a brief January return to the online space, this year's SGDQ is back to live speedrunning and the mission remains the same. The top runners in the world will look to run through some of the most recognizable games of the past and present for a worldwide audience on Twitch and do it for charity.

Summer Games Done Quick 2023 has come to Minneapolis, Minnesota. Many of this year's runners are on hand for live runs, though a few are checking in virtually from their home spaces. This year's event is raising money for Doctors Without Borders. After five days, the runners have raised over $885,000. Shacknews will be watching all week and we'll make sure to bring you the daily schedule each day. Plus, we'll highlight the noteworthy runs worth watching.

Before we get to the schedule, let's look at a highlight from Day 5. Bad takes happen, even during Pizza Tower runs.

You can watch all of today's action in the embed below!

Summer Games Done Quick 2023: Day 6 schedule

Here's the full schedule for Day 6, taken from the Games Done Quick website, along with a handful of runs to check out:

12:05PM - Metroid Prime Remastered

One of the most pleasant surprises of 2023 was the sudden announcement and immediate release of Metroid Prime Remastered. The Games Done Quick crew is familiar with this game, so they're eager to dive into this remastered version of this GameCube classic.

11:42PM - Super Mario 64

It's Friday night and there's no better way to spend it than checking out this Super Mario 64 randomizer run. The target time is 42 minutes, but 360Chrism is ultimately at the mercy of the randomizer. Tune in to see whether RNG favors him.

5:29AM - Spelunky 2

There are some great Friday runs lined up, but we can't help but be excited about one of the first Spelunky 2 runs to grace a Games Done Quick event. Anything can happen with Spelunky and it's loads of fun to watch, so we're happy to stay up late for this one.

Summer Games Done Quick 2023 will take place from now through Saturday, June 3. For more, check out the Games Done Quick website and be sure to come back all week to Shacknews for more on this week's marathon.

But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
