Kai Cenat has completed his highly popular Elden Ring marathon on Twitch. He had been streaming FromSoftware's game for 167 hours straight before beating the final boss. As one of the most popular streamers on the purple platform, with over 10 million followers, his six-day broadcast drew a massive audience, with over 250K concurrent viewers watching it on the last day (per Twitch Tracker).

Cenat was ecstatic after beating the final boss in Elden Ring, and clips of him finally finishing the game have gone viral on social media. After defeating Elden Beast, the content creator shrieked in excitement and collapsed on the floor, crying:

"Yes! Oh my god!"

The hype around the marathon was enormous, and the viewership numbers impressed many veteran content creators. Ninja recently lauded Kai Cenat for attracting hundreds of thousands of viewers to his Twitch channel while playing a game that is two years old.

Cenat got pretty emotional after the credits started rolling and thanked his audience for sticking with him for the whole stream:

"Chat, I f*cking love you all bro. Everybody who has been here from the beginning, you guys are f*cking amazing, bro. If it wasn't for you all, I wouldn't even have been motivated to continue..."

Kai Cenat's Elden Ring marathon began on May 10, 2024. Touting it as a 100+ hour stream, the streamer even released a trailer featuring Malenia, the hardest boss in the game. Fans were very excited for him to play FromSoftware's masterpiece on stream.

However, the road to the finish line was not easy. Not only did it take Cenat more than a hundred hours to get to the final boss, but he also took more than 24 hours to beat Malenia. Funnily enough, the first time he beat her first phase, the Twitch star thought he had finished the fight. However, he had to stop celebrating after the cutscene ended.

Regardless, the Elden Ring marathon is finally over as Cenat finally beat the game's last boss - Elden Beast - just before the marathon spilled into its seventh day.

Cenat has been live-streaming Elden Ring non-stop for six days straight at that point, and according to the death counter, he had over 1700 deaths when he completed the main story.

Cenat had much to say as the credits rolled, addressing his audience:

"They said we couldn't do it, bro. Try after try I gave it my all. I sat down here, slept on a mattress bed every single day. Spent 20 hours on Malenia, 500 deaths. Did not give up one, time, bro. Not one time I gave up. I kept going, and I kept learning and kept doing."

Elden Ring will be getting its first DLC next month, with the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion dropping on June 21. With the marathon's huge success, Kai Cenat could always do another marathon next month.
