Speedrun

Serious discussion of speedrun and other challenge-type playthroughs takes place almost exclusively at the Breath of Fire III Message Board at GameFAQs. The first known speedrun for BoF3 was done by a user named SharpPaper, however, serious speedrunning of the game was pioneered by DavidK5, who has since completed five full segmented speedrun and two single segment runs.

Records

The best known in-game completion time in a segmented run is 7 hours 41 minutes, which was completed by DavidK5 on July 14, 2012. He also completed the fastest known single-segment (no save) run on January 1, 2013 with an in-game completion time of 9 hours 23 minutes.

General Rules
