How to unlock the Chapter 2 Speedrun achievement in Mirror's Edge - Definitive Guide

In order to get the Trophy, you will have to clear Chapter 2 (Jackknife) under par time. To access the section for these trophies, You will have had to beat the game atleast once, and then you can find it under the Race section from the main menu.

You will need to clear this level in under 11 minutes. Below I have added a video, showing you what route I took.

I also have added another video under there showing a very usefull trick called Side Jump boosting. Its where Faith, will gain maximum speed, from taking a side step and then turning a 90 degree angle. Very usefull when you to go fast around around corners, or over a longer stretch.

I take no credit for these videos, all credit goes to Prill on PSN, and goes by the name of Ovendonkey on Youtube.

With this video, I was able to get the trophy on my 4th try. I was not able to replicate all the tricks in this video, but with some practice you should be able to do them pretty easily. My final time was 09:13:78

Complete the game to unlock this Speedrun. You must complete the level in under 11 minutes. Take note of the pause exploit at the gate that opens, as pausing here for 10-15 seconds will allow you to bypass the gate immediately, saving you time.

Below is a video demonstrating how to complete it, courtesy of watuhboy.

Here is also a video demonstrating the Jacknife shortcut right at the beginning of the chapter, courtesy of overdonkey186.

There is also a fantastic shortcut that can be used, shown below. Credit to k1ll1ng5pr33 for mentioning it and overdonkey186 for the video.

Shortcut shown from 1 minute 27 seconds onwards

See "Prologue Speedrun" for some general tips for Speedrunning.
