A Hungarian gamer broke a Guinness World Record by playing popular game Dance Dance Revolution for 144 hours.
Szabolcs Csépe, 34, aka GrassHopper, took the records for the longest video game marathon as well as the longest video game marathon on a rhythm game title.
He broke the record of 138 hours and 34 seconds, which was set by American gamer Carrie Swidecki in 2015. She earned her titles by playing Just Dance.
“Ever since I learned about Carrie Swidecki’s achievements in marathon gaming, I often caught myself thinking about how she pulled the all-time longest session off almost a decade ago,” Csépe told Guinness World Records.
“I set up stepping stones long ago to chase after the No.1 spot by building up the required skills in all aspects. Every time I attempted another marathon, I told myself, ‘It must feel like a dream achievement to all of us,’ until the final days of each record attempt actually concluded.”
Csépe previously earned the records for the longest video game marathon playing a Naruto game, 28 hours, 11 minutes and 32 seconds; and the longest video game marathon playing a puzzle game, 32 hours, 32 minutes and 32 seconds.
