ROB RUN FAQ

Question 1

How often does ROB RUN reset?

Accepted Answer

Every seven days. Kefir calls it the Federal Raid and states that all plots, bases, weapons and cash are wiped and converted into jail time and authority.

Question 2

What do I keep after a Federal Raid?

Accepted Answer

Cosmetics, player name, tutorial progress, settings and accumulated jail time carry over. Plots, bases, weapons and cash do not.

Question 3

Is there a fixed time for the next wipe?

Accepted Answer

Kefir has not published a fixed clock time or time zone. The Wipe Clock tool asks for the date of the last raid you saw and calculates a seven-day interval from that, and says so on the tool itself.

Question 4

What do I lose when I die?

Accepted Answer

It depends on place and role. A Criminal in Looty Bay loses the inventory but can surrender to the Police to keep equipped gear. Desert death always costs all loot. A Civilian who dies in the city keeps bag contents and equipped gear. A Police Officer loses only department-issued gear.

Question 5

How do I make money?

Accepted Answer

Kefir names four routes: collect and sell loot, haul and flip cargo, produce goods at your base, or join the police. Settlement owners and clans controlling territories also collect taxes.

Question 6

Is ROB RUN free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Steam store page marks it free to play and in Early Access, with a release date of 4 November 2026.

Question 7

How many people are playing?

Accepted Answer

Steam's most-played chart for the week rolled up on 10 November 2026 lists a peak of 188,386 players in game and rank nine, with no rank the previous week. Other outlets cite different snapshots; the About page lists them separately.

Question 8

Why are the reviews Mixed?

Accepted Answer

The store summary shows 8,818 reviews at 48 per cent positive. Reports on the launch weekend describe complaints about the weekly reset, balance and community behaviour. Those are press and community reports, not an official explanation.

Question 9

Which languages does the game support?

Accepted Answer

The store page states six supported languages. English, Russian, French, German and Spanish (Spain) are visible on the page checked here; consult the store page for the sixth. This site publishes English and Chinese editions independently of the game's language list.

Question 10

Can I play solo?

Accepted Answer

Kefir has not published a guarantee about solo balance. The published rules do give a solo player defined options: the police role has the mildest death penalty, and three of the four earning routes do not require territory. Community reports about solo survival are discussed in the solo guide.

Question 11

Do purchases affect gameplay?

Accepted Answer

Kefir has an article with exactly this title. Its conclusion was not verified line by line here, so this site does not restate it. What is verified is that cosmetics are listed among the items that survive a Federal Raid.

Question 12

I lost my progress. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

First check whether the loss matches the Federal Raid rule, which wipes plots, bases, weapons and cash every seven days. If it does not, Kefir's Account section has a dedicated article on lost progress, and the Troubleshooting section covers error codes and games that will not load.

Question 13

My friend appears to be on another server. Can we party up?

Accepted Answer

Kefir publishes an article on inviting a friend when the game says they are on another server. Follow that article for the current steps rather than a workaround from a third-party site.

Question 14

Is this site official?

Accepted Answer

No. ROB RUN Intel is an independent, unofficial reference. ROB RUN and related trademarks belong to Kefir. This site is not affiliated with or endorsed by Kefir or Valve, and every factual claim links to a dated source.

Question 15

Where do your facts come from?

Accepted Answer

The Steam store page, Steam's most-played chart, the official Steam news feed for app 4262460, and Kefir's ROB RUN help centre. Each page lists its own sources with the date they were checked. Where Kefir has not published something, the page says so.
