ROB RUN is built around a weekly reset. In one week you can go from a nobody to the boss of the server's biggest organization, and then everyone starts over. Kefir calls the wipe the Federal Raid.
How often does ROB RUN wipe?
Every seven days. Kefir's help center, its FAQ and the official ROB RUN account on X all say the same. Kefir adds that wipe lengths "could adjust down the road", so the seven-day cycle is the current rule, not a promise.
What day and time is the next wipe?
There is no single wipe day for the whole game. Each server runs its own seven-day cycle, and new servers open every day. Kefir's November 4 schedule says at least one fresh server opens per day in each region:
| Region | New server opens |
|---|---|
| EU | 5 PM UTC |
| East US | 8 PM ET |
More servers open automatically when needed, including outside these times. To know when your server wipes, check the timer in game. Creator This is Shran's guide gives the same advice.
What gets wiped?
According to Kefir's help center, these are wiped and converted into jail time and authority:
- All plots and bases
- All weapons
- All cash
That includes money in your bank account. Laundering protects cash from theft only until the wipe.
What carries over?
- Cosmetics
- Player name
- Tutorial progress
- Settings
- Accumulated jail time
Whether clans survive the wipe is to be confirmed; Kefir's wipe description does not mention them. Kefir's FAQ does say you can switch clans during a wipe cycle.
What are jail time and authority for?
When the wipe hits, your wealth becomes jail time and authority. Kefir's FAQ puts it this way: the more wealth you have at the wipe, the longer your prison sentence.
That sentence is useful. Jail time works like a currency: some items in the Shipments tab can only be unlocked by "racking up jail time". This is Shran compares it to a prestige system: what you build during the week still counts after the wipe. So there is no reason to sit on your money. Spend it on things that grow your empire.
Why does ROB RUN wipe every week?
Kefir says the wipe keeps the playing field level. Every new cycle gives rookies and veterans the same start, and the fun is in going from rags to riches again with new allies and a new plan.
"I lost my progress"
Before contacting support, Kefir suggests checking whether a wipe has just happened, and whether you are logged into the right Steam account. If the loss is unexpected, send support your UID, player name and the rough time it happened.
Tips for the last day before a wipe
- Your cash will be gone either way, so spend it on upgrades and unlocks rather than saving it.
- New servers open daily. If your server is near the end of its cycle, a fresh one may give your group a better start (see play with friends for how to change servers).
- Early hours on a new server are the best time to grab a settlement; see settlements.
