Games Done Quick's speedrunning event organized by the Black in a Flash community, will run its online event February 5-8, with the entire event broadcast on Games Done Quick’s official Twitch and YouTube channels.

Returning during the first week of Black History Month, Back to Black 2026 will spotlight Black speedrunners as they race through games, complete zany challenges, and more. This year's event supports Race Forward, a nonprofit that works across communities most affected by systemic racism to build collective power for racial equity. Last year's Back to Black event raised $44,000 for Race Forward.

The 2026 event will feature nostalgic classics and recent releases, such as Donkey Kong Country, Hades 2, Cuphead, Silent Hill 4, and many more. You can browse the full schedule here.
