The 2026 Summer Games Done Quick speedrunning marathon concluded this week in Minneapolis, generating $2.4 million in donations for Doctors Without Borders. The event attracted approximately 2,500 in-person participants and additional viewers through livestreams, with all proceeds directed toward the international medical charity's humanitarian work. Organisers also screened a documentary highlighting the organisation's response efforts to the crisis in Gaza.

Beyond competitive gameplay, the marathon offered attendees panels, community gaming spaces, vendor exhibitions featuring video game artwork, and playable game demonstrations. Notable speedrunning performances included a world record run of Kirby Air Riders and an unexpectedly successful Balatro competition. Since its establishment in 2010, Games Done Quick has accumulated more than $62 million in total charitable donations across multiple causes, with the organisation hosting two major events annually alongside additional programming.
