Jumping is one of these new in-game mechanics in Elden Ring, and every player can perform this function from the start. The jump is default set on the X button for PlayStation and A button for Xbox for console players. PC players can remap their Jump button to a different keybind, ideally to the Space key on Mouse Wheel.

How to jump on horseback?

Jump is a mechanic that you can use during combat to perform heavy attacks. Players can master several combination melee attacks while jumping. It is also a mechanic that can be used while on horseback in Elden Ring. To get a mount, players will have to rest at three different Sites Of Grace after leaving the Cave of Knowledge.

Visiting the First Step, Church of Elleh, and Gatefront will suffice. After visiting these sites, Melina will appear in a cutscene and provide players with the Spectral Steed Whistle. Using the Spectral Steed Whistle allows players to summon a Horse named Torrent. Players can use the Spectral Steed Whistle to mount the horse and can perform double jump while riding Torrent.
