One of the novel features of FromSoftware's Elden Ring is horse riding. Players can get their mount on horseback quite early in the tutorial area.
While FromSoftware's upcoming Elden Ring looks a lot like the tried and true formula of the Dark souls franchise, the new IP builds on the solid foundation of its predecessor, such as granting players a new mount to ride as they traverse the world. The well-designed and highly detailed environments of Axe or Dark souls they were anything but small, but the decision to add horseback riding in Elden Ring hints at just how vast gamers can expect this new world to be.
Torrent, the name of the player's spectral steed in Elden Ring, is not available from the beginning of the game, but is unlocked later after progressing in the tutorial area. However, it is recommended that players take their time, getting to know the world and the familiar but novel mechanics of the game before rushing to find their horse. Melina, one of the first characters the player meets, is the person who will provide the means to summon Torrent.
To unblock Torrent, the horse in Elden Ring, players must meet Melina at Gatefront, one of the Grace Sites in the tutorial area. Along the way, players must find three other sites before reaching the Gatefront, such as Stranded Graveyard, The First Step, Church of Elleh, Groveside Cave. The Places of Grace function in a similar way to the Bonfires in Dark souls, little landmarks where players can rest and regenerate their HP.
How to get the horse saddle in the Elden Ring
Gatefront is located directly north of where players start Elden Ring. After The First Step, the path will lead north and players will discover the other locations along the way. Once the player reaches Elleh's Church, they can be sure that their next stop will be Gatefront.
When players rest at the Gatefront Site of Grace, a cutscene will trigger in which Melina will approach the player and offer her services as a Maiden of Support. After a bit of dialogue, he will give players the Spectral Steed Whistle, the item he unlocks. ride a horse on Elden Ring and summons Torrent. Open inventory and add the whistle to the quick access bar for easy access.
