These techniques clearly paid off, as the runner moved through the game like they always knew exactly where they were. Apparently, Bubzia was actually using the rhythm of the game's music to time the jumps, as well as listening out for character footsteps. This run was part of the Awesome Games Done Quick event in January and featured a commentator explaining how such an immense feat is possible.


We also reported on a speedrunner going by the name of Bubzia who beat Super Mario 64 blindfolded in just 39 minutes. Despite that record being set just last month, it's already been beaten by SteeleDude42, who shaved the time all the way down to 11:21 three weeks ago.įurther still, other Mario games are getting thrown into the mix. We are super happy to enter the speedrunning community, here's our new video where EazySpeezy & Kosmic react to Kosmic's World Record Super Mario Bros Speedr. Most recently we reported that streamer Crescendo beat the whole game while wearing a blindfold, finishing with a time of 11:55. Yes, the preeminent Mario speedrunner Niftski clocked a sub-five-minute run this weekend, shattering the existing world record by less than a second. Bros blindfolded certainly isn't a new category, and has actually been fairly active as of late.

The video showing the record of exactly one minute is unlisted, but the 1:01 time is still public and has been shared on r/speedrunning. Related: Speedrunner Completes Sekiro Blindfolded
