I want to give a big shoutout to Oruga who came up with the initial strategy and Idea for this speedrun. I would link to his TH-cam or other socials but he does not have those :) Infinite Jumps and the Far Zenith Skip has been patched with patch 1.21 on PS5. This was the patch that came a long with the Burning Shores DLC. The patch was exclusive to PS5 so this does still work on PS4, but will be slower due to load times. I personally dont care much for this run being patched tbh. Since it was more of a fun run to showcase rather than something that would be fun to do in the long run like the regular full game speedruns. I am just happy I got to show it here and save the history of it before it got patched. Another Update: A new method to do the Far Zenith Skip has been found. The setup is slower but still works the same.
Yeah speedrunning is not for everyone, but I can promise you 99% of all speedrunners play the games normally and slowly before they do runs, anything else would be sad imo :)
I'm not a speedrunner, but I really appreciate all the info on skips and skills to make some gameplay faster. This has allowed me to quickly advance to parts of the game I want to savor - it puts me in control of my experience in the game. You don't have to Speedrun to find these things useful.
NG+ is actually the most popular way to speedrun Horizon games, but this will probably be its own unique category if the glitches still work on the other side of Burning Shores.
legit or not, it is still amazing and shows how you mastered all the aspects of the game... we know you. we know that you are capable of achieving the speedrun of this game with or without glitch so, you have my respect.
This was a fun video to watch. You articulate the steps very well. I haven’t been able to catch your streams lately as I’m usually at work but I try to catch up with the vods when I can 😊
I have enjoyed IJG so much! I figured out that you can infinite jump glitch up the walls in the final boss fight with Tilda and then stand on the orange awnings overlooking the fight. You can still hit the boss with your blast sling. I've had a lot of fun breaking encounters by confusing the scripts on the boss or machine with IJG.
I use hotspot whenever i download something or play online so it cant download automatically, but when i connect my hotspot it doesnt start and i have no option to start it
@@cubeman6639 I just went down the game page on the PS5 to where the DLC icon is, opened that and it had a download button. Worked just fine. I bought my DLC through the PS5, not through the website (could not find it there).
Had to get that in before the DLC launches in case IJs get patched, huh? ;) Anyway, fun video! Amazing what weird and interesting stuff the Arena/IJ combo makes possible.
I think it counts as a legitimate speedrun. For the game Ocarina of Time, you can beat the game in something like 10 minutes after you load up in the territorial area by jumping around and doing a series of small glitches that then triggers the end credits. And don't even get me started on the crazy Elden ring glitches were you can also beat that game in about two-and-a-half minutes. From everything I've seen about speedrunning, it counts so long as you start the game from the main menu as intended and then trigger the end credits as quickly as possible. RC speed runs from the watch? I don't think so. But should it count as a legit speedrun? Yes. Especially with all the setup required to do it.
Hey, first off, really fun to see what can be done with both the Zenith Skip and the Arena Glitch too. Incredibly funny to see a playthrough in basically three minutes. And also I was wondering what the Outfit that you are applying the appearance of is as I find it really good looking.
Whether or not it will be a category will be decided, once we know how things will work on the other side of Burning Shores. But will definitely be its own category if it still works.
OK. So I've tried this 3 times now. I do the arena glitch, finish game, start NG+ on ultra hard, as soon as I exit tutorial screen, I'm back at the arena, singularity in wait (meet at campfire) but my difficulty is not at Ultra Hard, it reverts.
I'm still in shock having found out they spent $ 212 million for the game over 5 years with so many glitches unpatched . Anyways hat down to you, love it
Actually we have found a caouple of ways to do some of the tricks now without IJs. So once we can do all of them I will share an update video because it might still be possible.
@@Majin_Nyoibo nah I decided I’d actually play the game on ultra hard lol. Hasn’t been too hard yet ngl. I played the game on very hard a lot and so far haven’t noticed too much difference
It's an interesting exploit and definitely clever: the exact type of exploit that speedruns have always searched out and used once found. I can definitely see a use for this for anyone who wants a quick and easy NG+ UH clear for trophies but as a "legitimate" speedrun, for me, this doesn't really count. Still, kudos on figuring this out and showing it to the rest of the community, well done.
I Want to use this for the Trophy. Is there a way to take it off ultra hard before the burning shores starts? Or do I need to play through again on an easier difficulty?
No the game locks you to Ultra Hard, so need to start a new NG+ to change difficulty. The checkpoint storage also locks your difficulty so has to be a normal playthrough sadly.
OK. Thanks. So I currently have a NG+ at the ready for the Singularity mission. I've aquired the other 2 NG+ trophies already. So could I potentially do a manual save before doing this? Finishing on ultra hard, getting the trophy, then load manual save I made before? Hope my question makes sense
We have found a work around for the shield and the Arena, we still need to find one more work around and then the run is possible again. Will make an update video once that happens.
Can I ask you something? I pre-ordered Burning shores and downloaded it already last night. As pre-order bonus, 2 days in advance. But it didn't start. I already finished the main story on ng+, but the focus call that should start the story.... nowhere to be found..... it doesn't happen. Am i stupid or what?
It’s a pre download. So that when it releases you can instantly play without having to wait for it to download. The actual release date is 12 am on Wednesday I believe
@@The-Caged-King you're kidding!? That's what 2 days advance bonus means??? I thought it means 2 days to play it in advance, not just save 7-9 minutes of dowload.....WTF!!!............great, last preorder of my life, never again. Thank you.
@@GRsBlueBiHan it explicitly says “Pre-download” you still get bonus stuff for pre ordering. This is on you for miss reading. Do your own due diligence and check things before spending money.
@@The-Caged-King pre-download doesn't mean explicitly NOT BE ABLE TO PLAY. I've seen enough early reviews given with days in advance. I never considered that.
Personally you cannot call it a speedrun when you using glitch and not start from start to finish. The same for other game. Many of them cannot be done on console so basically it’s not a soeedrun but a bad ways to show (hey I cannot make a normal speedrun) 🤷♂️
That's ghost levels. When you finish the game and start NG+ (provided you're level 50 already) every 100k exp you level up 1 ghost level. Note that it doesn't provide any additional health or strength.
Yes take 3 hours to setup a 3 minute glitched to hell exploit. Pass. This should have it's own category especially since it'll get patched eventually then we'll be getting into down patched runs and a lot of boring runs.
"In order to beat Forbidden West in 3 minutes, we have to have a preloaded save in which hours of play have already been put into a game" That's not a speed run, dude.
@@ElkjaerTV you intentionally made a clickbait title and you know it so dont pretend its someone else's fault when theyre expecting something you wrote in the title
Yeah.. most of did it fast.. its a kiddish game. She tells you what to look for where its at.. then that YELLOW? Yeah.. always showing you where to go. So OMG HOW FUN you finished a game any 12y could.. oh did we get to see to girls kiss? OMG was that just fun or what! omg
I can't play the DLC either since I have only a PS4 but I'm still interested in the game and I'll watch Elk play the DLC so I can still enjoy the story.
Hold out for the PC port!!! I'm really hoping they start doing PC/Playstation releases at the same time for future titles in the franchise. I think they would make a lot more money for Guerilla Games, though they would have extra production costs for cross platform support. Elden Ring was on Playstation, Xbox, and PC from day 1.
Clickbait. Yeah I speed run games to first I play the game takes hours but i say i did it in 3 minutes. Not a speed runs. If you had to play the game first in order to do it. Anyone that thinks this is a speed run doesn't know anything.
First I dont know what you expected when you clicked the video after seeing the title and thumpnail. Second I dont see how you can be a speedrunner and somehow have never heard of the concept of NG+ Speedruns which are extremely common specially in modern games. Also any speedrunner would not spell speedrun in 2 words ;)

@@realsmusic1 Welcome to the world of Speedruns, you most be new here, but stick around and I am sure you will learn :)
Quick question: do you have another coil and weave duplication glitch for burning shores yet?
Could you make a video of the updated NG+ skip please.
Incredible. It never fails to amaze me just how smart and creative speedrunners are! Well done, man! Very enjoyable to watch :)
Thanks :)
When I’m playing Forbidden West I’m always stopping & admiring the scenery & stars. I couldn’t see myself rushing this game tbh. Cool strat tho!!
Yeah speedrunning is not for everyone, but I can promise you 99% of all speedrunners play the games normally and slowly before they do runs, anything else would be sad imo :)

You don't have to Speedrun to find these things useful.
yesterday, I read a novel in under 3 minutes by reading the last paragraph. Hurrah. Worth it.
This does counts as NG+ any% which is a very niche speedrun category in itself. Cool video!

Great Job Elk! RIP Lance.
Thank you Greedy :)
For those who wonder: you can still use the glitch after downloading the dlc pre-launch.

Well it would be a shame for the history to get lost if they do end up patching it.
Thank you as this was very clever and very enjoyable to watch.
You completed the final quest, not the whole game in 3 minutes. I can win a race to if all I do is backup and cross the finish line again.
I don't know how you always find these crazy ways to break the game xD
A-mazing! Great video as usual 👏🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Pretty cool to see this without IJS now that getting out of the Arena is still possible
Will make an updated video but still some strategies that need to be solved on the new patch.
As entertaining as the video is the comments section is freaking gold
You should run for president! LMAO ! crazy guy. Nice
0:50 so I’m not the only one jumping to my flying mount 🤣 Silly but still fun to do 😂

It is not just appearance it is the one I use for stats as well. But it is called "Tenakth Vanquisher" and I am using the Orange dye from NG+.
Maybe counts as an "any way possible" speedrun but I lean more towards needing to count the prep time as well.
Thanks now i didn't need do Play UH again!
You didnt complete horizen forbidden west in 3 minutes, you finished the final mission in 3 minutes
you are just built different Elk
What a great idea.
Thank you so much 💙🌼
Definitely an any% run in my book. Now we need to move the established runs to a new category. Any% no checkpoint storage or some such
Whether or not it will be a category will be decided, once we know how things will work on the other side of Burning Shores. But will definitely be its own category if it still works.
@@ElkjaerTV that makes sense!
Just so you know folks he is saying invincibility, not invisibility. Aloy can’t die in the glitch.
Yeah I mess up those to words all the time. My accent just cant say them properly xD
@@ElkjaerTV yeah no problem. English is annoying haha.
mad lad, at least now i can beat Ultra Hard
It’s cool enough that it could probably be it’s own category but there needs to be something to separate using the glitch or not
For sure. If it still works on the other side of Burning Shores, it will get its own category.
Rest in peace the infinite jump 🪦
OK. So I've tried this 3 times now. I do the arena glitch, finish game, start NG+ on ultra hard, as soon as I exit tutorial screen, I'm back at the arena, singularity in wait (meet at campfire) but my difficulty is not at Ultra Hard, it reverts.
Im having the same problem
Oh well, it doesn't matter now. The new update version 1.021 has fixed and now prevents infinite jump.
I'm still in shock having found out they spent $ 212 million for the game over 5 years with so many glitches unpatched . Anyways hat down to you, love it
They tried to squeeze way too much into it. Literally no idea was rejected apparently
I think it can be considered a Legit Speedrun but with some conditions
Nice❤good job
Thanks :)
This felt like a week of setup for a three minute speedrun 😂 try doing this today tho 😉
Tilda got frozen like Elsa
😂 🤣 😂 Ookaay… I have a suspicion that it will be hard to beat.
A speed run which cannot ever be done anymore, as the infinite jump glitch has been patched.
Actually we have found a caouple of ways to do some of the tricks now without IJs. So once we can do all of them I will share an update video because it might still be possible.
I'm searching for the quickest time/path I can speed run through a NG+ to obtain the Concentration Damage Coil I am missing from the side quest.
I can still get in the shield but unable to call a mount 😢 i even got up there but there's an invisible wall all around
impressive
i thought this video show how you complete the game in 3 minute after ditch Avad
or i guess i miss something

It is a speedrun but it definitely isn't what the title of the video said.
@@dmac1259 exactly. All this “prep time” is time needed to complete the game lmao
Mind blown...
Is it possible to get the NG+ weapons for the DLC if I beat NG+ with your method and then complete some sidequests for champion tokens?
No has to be a normal playthrough, since the checkpoint storage loads in your old checkpoint and not a new NG+ playthrough.
Ok, thanks for the answer
I mean, it’s legit, but probably needs a split class kinda like save warp glitches in FF7.
It will get its own category if it still works on the other side of Burning Shores.
