Summer Games Done Quick, the annual speedrunning marathon that raises money for charity, has announced a strong mix of classics and newer hits for its summer schedule.Summer Games Done Quick will be running from June 30 to July 6, and every day will feature several speedruns.

A classic that many Xbox fans will enjoy is a four-player, co-op, legendary difficulty speedrun of Halo 3. Normally, speedruns require absolute skill and precison from just one person, so the co-op nature of this run will make it a fascinating one to watch.For the masochists out there, a hitless any% run of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice will be streamed on the official Games Done Quick Twitch channel.

Sekiro is widely considered to be the hardest FromSoftware game, so this run should be a nail-biter.For Soulslike fans, there’s also the newly released Another Crab’s Treasure.

This one will be an any% race, so you’ll get to watch two speedrunners compete for the fastest time against each other.For the retro fans, there will be an all gold bolts run of Ratchet & Clank and an all bosses run of Silent Hill.
