Windows 10 “update” interrupts charity speedrun

A recent charity speedrun of Bioshock was seemingly interrupted by a Windows 10 update, reports Eurogamer.

“Speedrunner Blood_Thunder stumbled into the now infamous blue screen update as he approached a terminal in the game at around the 33 minute mark, to the surprise of audiences watching in the room and online”.

It later transpired that the “update’ was an elaborate prank with the in-game cutscene edited to make it appear as if the infamous update had started.

Blood_Thunder was able to continue as normal and finish the entire game in a time of 51:54.

Games Done Quick is a series of video game speedruns and marathons for charity, taking place every January and July. You can watch the heart-stopping moment below:
