Summer Games Done Quick (SGDQ) live event is set to commence from 16 August. The event runs 24 hours a day for a full week till 23 August. This year, due to the delay on the summer event, SGDQ added an extra event in April to raise money for coronavirus relief.
In light of COVID-19, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the on-site portion of #SGDQ2020 and instead proceed with an online-only event, Summer Games Done Quick 2020 Online.

While the event no longer has a physical presence, for most viewers at home, the experience will be the same. Summer Games Done Quick will stream throughout the length of the event on its Twitch channel, with videos also available after the event on YouTube.
Ah, SGDQ schedule is online. Starting August 16th.
Zelda Breath of the Wild Dog% is the only BotW run on the schedule, lol.https://t.co/eRFlPodRcT
