It’s almost time again for Awesome Games Done Quick (AGDQ), the zany speedrun-fest for a good cause.

The hook for this year’s event is a run of the Dreamcast classic with a live backing band. Funds raised from this year’s showcase will benefit the nonprofit Prevent Cancer Foundation.

AGDQ 2025 runs from January 5 to 12 in Pittsburgh.

Last year’s AGDQ raised $2.5 million for the Prevent Cancer Foundation. They have raised $51.8 million for charity over 15 years.

The live instrumental band rocking out during a Crazy Taxi run sounds absolutely epic!

You can check out a preview in the video below, which showed the same band rocking out to a recorded run of the game at Summer Games Done Quick (SGDC) 2024.
