Though Dash Rings can provide a necessary boost to proceed, they also serve to guide the player down certain pathways in automated sections of the levels. As such, they are usually found at the edges of gaps, above Springs or platforms, or just beyond roads and Grind Rails that abruptly end. However, the Dash Rings can only launch the playable characters in one direction.ĭash Rings can always be found floating in midair and serve primarily as a way for the player to move across gaps, get through small passages in the walls or even reach otherwise unreachable areas. In gameplay, as soon as the playable character enters the middle of a Dash Ring or touches its edges, they will be shot through midair with a short burst of speed, with the direction of the burst depending on the Dash Ring's angle. Their primary function is to send the playable character flying through the air. The Dash Rings are large rings, up to a couple of meters in diameter.
