澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Resident Evil 4 remake speedrunn🌳ers are already completiꦓng the game's hardest difficulty in under two hours.

As first noted by , speedrunner spicee has managed to beat Resident Evil 4 remake's supremely tough 'Professional' difficulty setting in under two hours. To be precise, that's merely one hour, 58 minutes, and 47 seconds taken to beat Capcom's latest horror remake on 🔴the hardest difficulty🌞 it has to offer.

, out-of-bounds glitches are allowed for the Professional speedruns, but using extra treasure maps, and items that give you a gameplay adv♔antage like the sunglasses, are entirely ruled out.

What's key to this Professional run from spicee is to simply⛦ avoid most enemies, and not even bother trying to parry them out of your way, as the parry timing window is so punishing. There's also, as you can probably imagine from a speedrun at under two hours, absolutely zero time for any side activities, including saving the poor dog that helps Leon out in the first El Gigante fight.

Completing Resident Evil 4 remake in under two hours on P🅰rofessional difficulty is just bananas, and so far, spicee is the only player in the world to have managed it. The second-best Professional run comes from , who managed the mode in a blistering two hours and nine minutes.
