Overview

• Polygon’s July 23 guide lists nine Banandium Gems found so far in Sublayer 1100 of the Racing Layer.
• Completing the Zebra Bananza: Liftoff Lope challenge awards two gems—one for finishing and another for finishing with at least 20 seconds remaining.
• Jumping Jukes and Turf Surf Trampling battle challenges each grant a Banandium Gem when their foes are defeated.
• Answering all the Racing Quiz Master’s questions correctly and punching a marked ceiling spot behind Quiztone each reveal a gem, with the hidden compartment featuring Cranky Kong and Rambi.
• Using liftoff ore combined with the Ostrich Bananza glide unlocks a gem on a finish line pillar and another on a remote floating island, and the guide flags an additional gem as locked until players complete the main story.
