Real Time Attack — the Japanese term for speedrunning, where players try to complete a game as fast as possible in real time.

While the English-speaking world uses 'speedrun,' Japanese communities predominantly use RTA (Real Time Attack), a Japanese-coined English abbreviation. RTA events, modeled after Games Done Quick, have become major community events in Japan. The term covers both casual and competitive speedrunning across all game genres.
