go to ring runner remix
Ring Runner in the Lands Between brings Sonic Adventure 2 to Elden Ring. Run fast,
spin dash through soldiers, homing-attack bosses, collect rings and Chaos Emeralds, and go Super, all to SA2's soundtrack.
Moves
- Run 1.6× faster, always on. Hold Shift to boost.
- Spin dash: dodge while running, or hold Ctrl to rev up (Sonic 3 & Knuckles style) and release to blast off up to 12 m. Spin dashes plough through every enemy in the way and knock them flying.
- Homing attack: jump, then jump again in mid-air. A green reticle shows your target. With nothing in range you get SA2's jump dash.
- Press K to turn into Sonic: SA2's own Sonic model and animations (stand, walk, run, fall, spin ball) take your Tarnished's place. Press K again to turn back. (Controller: stand still and hold Dodge for 1 s.)
Rings, Sonic rules
- Enemies burst into spinning 3D rings when they die.
- Rings are your shield: a hit with rings costs up to 10 rings (they bounce away, grab some back) and no health. A hit with no rings is fatal. Poison and rot ticks don't count. You can turn this off in the ini.
Chaos Emeralds and Super form
- Every different boss you beat drops a Chaos Emerald. Open the pause menu for hints on bosses to hunt near you.
- With all 7 emeralds and 50 rings, hold Jump for 1 second to go Super Sonic: gold, faster, invincible, and double damage, while your rings drain.
Music and sound
- SA2's soundtrack, area by area: City Escape in Limgrave, Metal Harbor, Radical Highway, Sky Rail, Final Chase and more. Bosses get SA2's boss and Sonic vs. Shadow themes. Tip: set Elden Ring's Music volume to 0 to hear only SA2.
- Sonic 3 & Knuckles-style sound effects: rings, spin-dash rev, jumps, hits.
Good to know
- Needs Sonic Adventure 2 (Steam). Ring Runner reads SA2's music, model and animations from your own install; no SEGA files ship with it.
- Elden Ring 2.7.1, offline and solo (Melty starts Elden Ring with Easy Anti-Cheat off). Not affiliated with SEGA or FromSoftware.
- Sonic is drawn over the game, so scenery in front of him doesn't hide him, and your weapon isn't shown while you're Sonic.
- Settings (speeds, damage, ring rules, volumes) are in
ring_runner.ini.
