People are speedrunning Super Mario Odyssey’s demo

Players are speedrunning Super Mario Odyssey while waiting the game’s full release on Nintendo Switch.

Speedy types are challenging themselves to speedrun the game’s 10-minute timed demo, with the best result so far being a five minute, twenty-eight second (5:28) run. That result belongs to Jacob Babione, who’s managed to best times in the six- and seven-minute ranges.

Babione’s run can be watched below:

The original speedrunning video that started this craze, a 7:00+ run by YouTuber Fengari through Odyssey‘s Tostarena, can be seen below:
