Ever since its release in late February, the biggest and most anticipated launch of 2022 has become one of the highest trending games so far.

Elden Ring has kept players engaged in the magical universe of Lands Between, despite its gameplay design posing various challenges in front of them.

Many of the players have revealed that it’s very difficult to win against the iconic bosses in the fantasy RPG. But overall, it’s still great as they get the motivation to keep pushing more in order to become the Elden Lord.

Well, YouTuber and hardcore gamer Hazeblade probably had this same thought in mind. The player ended up creating a new world record for completing Elden Ring in just 24 minutes and 37 seconds. At least, as of this writing, it’s the best speed run of the FromSoftware title.

However, in the description under the video, Hazeblade mentioned that a “Zip Glitch” inside the game proved to be very helpful in saving more time. And that’s why the YouTuber was able to finish it in just under a sub 25-minute run.

This month has already witnessed multiple speed run records of Elden Ring. It looks like players want to prove that it’s not an impossible quest to complete at all.

Still, regular players will need a lot of time in achieving such a result whatsoever.

Meanwhile, the critically acclaimed game is now available for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam.
