Here’s where to find all seven Chaos Emeralds and what each power does.
Sonic Superstars is the latest 2D Sonic adventure to hit store shelves, taking the blue hedgehog to the Northstar Islands to battle Doctor Eggman once again. Thankfully, Sonic will be able to harness the powers of the Chaos Emeralds to help save the day.
Before that can happen though, Sonic needs to find all seven chaos emeralds scattered across the many levels that make up the Northstar Islands. This is done by finding the giant rings hidden in each level and then by completing the bonus stage found within. This is a little mini-game where you swing continuously towards the Chaos Emerald in hopes of grabbing it. Once done, that particular Chaos Emerald’s power will be unlocked.
All abilities work across all characters, so that means Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy Rose are all capable of utilising these powers. That’s the easy part. The hard part is figuring out where these giant rings are.
So to help solve this conundrum, we’ve rounded up all the info you need to find all the giant rings as well as what each power does once you’ve collected the Chaos Emerald. Head below for all the details.
Sonic Superstars Chaos Emerald locations: All giant rings to find
To get a Chaos Emerald, you’ll need to find a giant ring. When you find such a ring, jump into it and swing your way towards the Chaos Emerald in question.
Giant rings can be found in multiple acts of Sonic Superstars, so you should have plenty of opportunities to try your luck in the swinging mini-game.
A handy video from Mixeli has now been uploaded to YouTube that outlines exactly where to find all the giant rings you’ll need to collect the full set of Chaos Emeralds.
As the video shows, the giant rings are hidden throughout each level, often in a particularly hard-to-reach place. Some levels even provide multiple opportunities to find the glowing, jumbo-sized rings. You should hear a metallic noise playing in the background when you’re nearby, so keep an eye (and an ear) out!
