King Candy forbids her to race, as she has a glitch that causes her to move and teleport erratically. In Sugar Rush, Vanellope von Schweetz steals Ralph's medal and uses it to buy her way into the nightly race that determines which characters are playable the next day. Felix leaves the game to find Ralph, allying with Sergeant Calhoun, the heroine of Hero's Duty, as she tracks the Cy-Bug, which may become a virus.

With Ralph gone, his game is labeled out of order. Ralph accidentally launches himself in an escape shuttle with a Cy-Bug inside and crash-lands in the candy-themed kart racing game Sugar Rush. Overhearing that players in the first-person shooter Hero's Duty can earn medals, Ralph sneaks in and steals one while the game's characters are fighting Cy-Bugs, an insectoid enemy. When Ralph is excluded from the game's thirtieth-anniversary party, he determines to win a medal and earn some respect. At a support group, Wreck-it Ralph, the villain of Fix-it Felix, Jr., expresses frustration with his assigned role, as he is mistreated by his game's NPCs while Felix is celebrated. Whenever Litwak's Arcade closes, the various video game characters leave their in-game roles and socialize via a power strip.
