Okay I'm excited to officially announce that The Run has a new glitch called "Unswap" glitch. Everything happened 2 days ago when I woke up and I saw The_Unpunished (a fellow community member) tagged me, ItzSamOnPC and a couple of other The Run runners in Discord, telling us he found something new and it could be something amazing with posting 2 videos of how he pause buffers and in the very last moment in the car select fade out screen he resets and he gets warped back to a previous level.

The next thing I do is I immediately get in voice chat with him in Discord to investigate further. It turned out that after you do that restart and when you get warped back you quit to main menu and the game will still tell you that you "Completed Stage X", but what was even more interesting is that after we continued to the next stage .. WE KEPT THE SAME CAR WE HAD BEFORE THE CAR SELECT!!

This is extremely game braking especially for the NG+ category, because until now we couldn't keep the Sesto Elemento after the car select and we were always forced to play 1 level with a slower car and then Car Swap Glitch again, however by performing "Unswap" glitch WE CAN KEEP THE SESTO ELEMENTO NOW!! Note that this is also useful for NG where with this glitch you can keep the Lamborghini Gallardo Balboni for Stage 8 instead of playing with the slower Audi R8!!

Okay so how do we actually perform the actual "Unswap" glitch and how much time does it actually save?

Well here I'm going to post 2 methods found so far.

• AUTO-SPLIT METHOD

Please watch this video for in-depth explanation how the glitch actually works and how to perform it using the auto-splitter from LiveSplit.

• ELEPHANT METHOD

Please watch the following video from ItzSamOnPC doing and explaining the Elephant Method which doesn't require auto-splitter from LiveSplit.

And finally how much time does it actually save?

Well I have recorded a video retiming exactly that, it saves more than 1:30 minutes in an entire NG+ run!!

Feel free to ask any questions about the glitch or if you struggle to perform it!

P.S. : Performing "Unswap" glitch will also make the unlocking animations after finishing a stage not show up, which means this is a 10 seconds time save for NG!
