The achievement was especially impressive given Ikaboze\\'s use of an unfamiliar controller and the inability to hear the game amidst the convention hall\\'s noise. Reflecting on the event, Ikaboze shared, \\\"I was surprised by how many people had gathered. Staff were even filming on their smartphones. This was the first time anyone had completed the Breath of the Wild demo, and staff congratulated me.\\\"

"Nintendo Switch 2 Debuts with Zelda Speedrun Applause"

Author : Hunter Update:May 12,2025

A The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild speedrunner achieved a remarkable feat at the Nintendo Switch 2 Experience in Japan, completing the critically-acclaimed RPG in just 10 minutes. Japanese content creator Ikaboze, as reported by VGC, utilized an existing save file without prior knowledge of Link's equipment. Opting for a daring challenge, Ikaboze decided to "defeat the final boss while tied up completely naked and with all my equipment removed." He loaded a save file that took him directly to the final confrontation with Ganon. In a mere seven minutes, Ganon was vanquished, prompting spontaneous applause from the onlookers.

The achievement was especially impressive given Ikaboze's use of an unfamiliar controller and the inability to hear the game amidst the convention hall's noise. Reflecting on the event, Ikaboze shared, "I was surprised by how many people had gathered. Staff were even filming on their smartphones. This was the first time anyone had completed the Breath of the Wild demo, and staff congratulated me."
