Two layers: the city and the desert
Looty Bay: the heist city
Looty Bay is the location you’ll visit most. Heists, deals, armoured raids and murders happen there every minute, and it plays like a classic extraction shooter: drive in, find loot, get out in one piece. Dev post You pick Civilian, Criminal or cop each time you enter. Dev post Targets run from corner stores and jewelry shops to bank vaults and police armories. Dev post See the full list of player-mapped places on heists & targets.
- Fence vans appear on your map marked with a dollar sign. That’s where you sell. Official
- Parking Terminals rent you a free car if you have none. Official
- Looty Bay Bank: open your account here as a Civilian. Official
- Police Station: enlist as a cop when slots are open. Official
- Players report that a key’s description links to its door on the map. Players
The global map: districts and settlements
All player bases on a server share one global map in the desert. Dev post
- Districts are made of separate settlements. You can only rent a plot in a settlement someone owns; unowned districts can’t be claimed. Dev post
- Levels. Each district has a level that decides available features and items. Level 2 and 3 plots need Black Market documents. Dev post Official
- Special structures boost nearby settlements with defence, business bonuses or discounts. Dev post
- District hubs buy stolen loot, often for much more than Looty Bay. Dev post
- The Highlands, the central district: the clan holding it makes its leader Shadow Governor, and only bases there can buy helicopters. Dev post Official
- No law. Anyone can kill you in the desert, and death there costs all your loot. Dev post Official
Lenny’s Motel, the Prison and the Bar
- Lenny’s Motel: where every Hobo starts. Lenny explains the rules, sells Black Market goods and stores your cash. Dev post Official Official
- The Prison: a global-map location. “Surrender to Feds” there lets you switch servers. Official
- The Bar: Kefir’s September preview described a neutral hub where nobody can shoot you, with roulette and limited storage. It was a pre-launch description, so check it in game. Dev post
Interactive map
Kefir hasn’t released an official interactive map. Fan sites have built community versions from player reports, for example robrun.info’s map. Players Locations and loot shift with patches, so treat them as a guide.
Will there be new maps?
Kefir’s Early Access notes list “more maps, levels and modes” for the full release, with no dates. Official Its first Looty Bay post also said the game would have several locations. Dev post
Questions players ask
What is the ROB RUN map?
ROB RUN has two layers. Looty Bay is the city where heists happen. The global map is a lawless desert where every player base on the server sits, split into districts made of settlements, with the central Highlands district at the top of the power pyramid.
Is there an official interactive map for ROB RUN?
Kefir hasn’t published one. Fan sites have built community maps; robrun.info hosts one. Treat locations and loot on them as player-reported.
Where is the Prison on the ROB RUN map?
The Prison is a location on the global map. Selecting it and choosing “Surrender to Feds” is also how you switch servers to join a friend.
Will ROB RUN get new maps?
Kefir’s Early Access notes list more maps, levels and modes as planned additions for the full version, with no dates. Its first Looty Bay post also said the game would have several locations.
