Ocarina of Time welcomed a new eye-popping record of just 9 minutes, 59 seconds by use of the Stale Reference Manipulation glitch and Arbituary Code Execution. Lozoots was responsible for achieving this incredible new time.
The speedrunning community continually commits to finding new ways of shaving off precious time to claim a new record. Effectively, speedrunning in the Any% category is all about beating a game by any means necessary, including using any tricks or glitches.
While speedrunning, and specifically Any% speedrunning, isn’t for everyone, it is still remarkable to witness. Of course it is nice to see every nook and cranny that Ocarina of Time has to offer at a leisurely pace, but to be able to finish the game in such a small amount of time is an incredible accolade. Hats off to Lozoots for the new record.
