New Mirror's Edge speed run will make you seasick

By DanielleRiendeau on Nov 03, 2014 at 7:30p


Twitch user Requiem720 has just busted the world record for speed running the beloved first-person platformer Mirror's Edge. With an "any %" run of 36:41 (34:11 minus the loading screens), they've put in an amazing feat that is beautiful and dizzying to watch.

Requiem720 wants to continue improving their time. Today, they are planning to stream again and try to sub 36 minutes.

A warning though — you may want to watch this in a smaller window. Requiem720 moves fast — this is a speed run, after all — and the game is basically a first-person parkour platformer. I won't be blamed if you barf on your keyboard while watching.
