A Japanese speedrunner called Zdi6923 submitted his 59 minutes and 22 seconds score on speedrun.com. This is pretty interesting given the fact that most players spend this much time playing the game on the starting sky island alone. It is being said that this Youtuber took advantage of the numerous glitches and bugs present in the game.

These Unique Features Would Really Make the Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Thrive After Its Release in 2023

When fans start the game, they first have to explore the sky island in high emergence in order to gather starting abilities that are pretty crucial to advance to mainland Hyrule. Then they go ahead and break the game and glitch through the floor.

The video of Speedrun surely looks like the work of a master. It appears that Zdi took their time mastering the abilities and find a way to complete this game at the soonest. And the result is that they have become the first Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom player with a record of completing this game in under an hour.

People are still trying this and even faster glitches in order to break the record set by Zdi, it might even end up getting broken someday. This is indeed impressive. Yet, this is nothing compared to the record made during Breath of the Wild.
