It's always a treat to see a world record speedrun happen at a Games Done Quick event, especially when that record is about the event itself. Agdq 2021 crossed the $1 million USD threshold this week faster than any event in the organisation's history, and we've still got another day to go.
AGDQ 2021 crossed $1 million raised for the Prevent Cancer Foundation on Thursday, January 7, during SasquatchSensei's Halo 3 PC run. That run itself was a bonus donation incentive which got met pretty slowly, but it looks like it did its job to help push GDQ to new heights.
The event has reached nearly $1.3 million USD raised as of this writing, and the vast majority of donations tend to come in during the final day. Historically, GDQ has tended to regularly top itself each time out, though SGDQ 2020 was the first exception to that rule. That event, the first online GDQ and the first amid the current pandemic, pulled in about $700k less than its predecessor.
