Awesome Games Done Quick 2023 Online is only a couple months away, and today the GDQ organizers have revealed the schedule. It’ll be your usual gamut of classic and modern games, ranging from console to PC. When the show returns in January, it’ll benefit the Prevent Cancer Foundation.
You may be astute enough to notice the ‘online’ portion of the name. Unlike SGDQ 2022, Awesome Games Done Quick 2023 will not be a live and in-person event. The organizers decided to cancel the event that was scheduled to be hosted in Florida. There were concerns over obvious issues surrounding Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill as well as state legislation that made Covid regulations harder to uphold for businesses. Instead of causing discomfort for attendees, Games Done Quick decided to take the show back to the internet instead.
But Games Done Quick has found a lot of success with online events. And the AGDQ 2023 schedule is chock full of games that should no doubt draw plenty of eyes. It starts off with the recently launched Splatoon 3, which is being run by LonTr0. The any% run lasts nearly 1.5 hours, so it should be good ink-soaked fun. There will be many, many other games, with a good list of PC releases such as Cyber Hook, Superliminal, Fashion Police Squad, and more.

AGDQ 2023 schedule brings the games, good and hilariously bad
Of course, no GDQ is complete without the awful block. As per tradition, the organizers schedule in some so-bad-they’re-good games — almost totally for entertainment purposes. This year, the awful block is “blessed” with games like Yolanda, Office Race, and, um, Lizard Lady vs. The Cats. Okay, I might have to check that last one out. It sounds kind of amazing.
Be sure to check out the AGDQ 2023 schedule, which is now live at the official site. The show begins on Sunday, January 8 and goes 24 hours a day for a full week.
